　　Father's Day is a fairly new celebration in the British calendar compared with Mother's Day，which has been a very popular and well celebrated festival in the UK for a very long time.

　　The origins of the celebrati on are American and it was inspired by the actions of a man named William Smart. He was a veteran of the US Civil War and his wife died giving birth to their sixth child. He raised six children alone without remarrying，which was undoubtedly unusual back in those days.

　　His daughter，Sonora Dodd，realised when she was an adult what her father had sacrificed for his children. It was in the early 1900s and she was actually at church one day，listening to a sermon on Mother's Day. She thought there should also be a Father's Day celebration.

　　And so the tradition was born，on the third Sunday every June，close to the anniversary of Sonora's father's death. Britain took the idea of Father's Day from the American celebration and it has been celebrated officially since the 1970s.
