The Weekend
In the United States，Monday is the beginning of a workweek．It is the day that most Americans like least．It is not surprising then that the day they 1ike best is Saturday．It is the beginning of the weekend．And the weekend is the time for fun．Life is different on the weekend．
Most Americans do not work on Saturday and Sunday．Instead，they take care of their house, car or garden．They get up late in the morning．They enjoy the feeling that the time seems to move more slowly．People may have many duties at home on the weekend，yet they still feel freer．The week is for things that you have to do．The weekend is for things that you like to do．Families might get in a car and go for a drive in the country．They might take part in sports activities outdoors．And on Saturday night they might go to a restaurant or to the movies．
A Canadian writer notes that the idea of the weekend is a recent invention．Even the word itself was not invented until the 1870s．At that time only wealthy people talked about weekends. For most people back then，however，the workweek was six days 1ong．
Automobile maker Henry Ford was the first major employer in the United States to establish a workweek of five days．He did that in 1926. He thought that, if working people had more free time，they would spend more money．And that would be good for the economy．One thing helped the idea spread rapidly．It was the Great Depression in the 1930s．Americans had little money to buy things during the depression，so there was 1ess demand for goods and services．This in turn 1ed to reduced working-hours for those who still had jobs．
By the 1940s，it had become common for most Americans to work eight hours a day，five days a week. Work ended Friday evening. It did not begin again until Monday morning．Today the 1ives of most Americans are organized that way．Five days of work or school are followed by two days of rest．For many people，Saturday night is the high point at the weekend because the night does not fo11ow or come before a day of work．So it is the night for going out and having fun．
