Traditionally, we have celebrated Labor Day on May 1st  and this was because the first of May is the feast day of St. Joseph, the Worker. By sheer coincidence, May 5th is the feast day of San Isidro Labrador, patron saint of farmers. So we honored both labor and farmers on the same month.

                    [Summary] => Long before the Americans came to the Philippines, the Filipinos already had Fool’s Day. But it was not April Fool, it was part of the Twelve days of Christmas celebration — the Feast of the Holy Innocents which fell on December 28 to commemorate the martyred boys under two years of age that King Herod ordered to be massacred in his attempt to kill the Babe of Bethlehem who he feared would usurp his kingship. The legendary accounts say there were thousands of children killed. But modern research maintains that there were less than a hundred.

By June 14 of the following year, the Manila Lodge was established (with 69 members) and it was the very first Elks fraternity outside the United States.
