Howdy is a slang greeting based on the phrase: Howdy Doody- sometimes hyphenated, How do you do, In other words, like Greetings, Friends. the standard intro formalilty of How do you do? is somewhat Westernized, as did the TV character.

Zawditu- spellings vary was the Empress-wife of Hailie Selassie., or may have been his mother, it was equivalent to ( Judith) prounounced ( Zoww-Di-Too) which sounds like something out of Howdy Doody. She was honored on Ethiopian coins.
Why did kids like to watch howdy doody?
Welll- it appealed to kids with loud costumes- puppets, jingles and the familiar opening ritual =-Say Kids, what time is it? The program was extremely child-oriented. The lead character was a child- not an adult llike Steve Canyon or Dick Tracy. They had occasional animal angles- but not animal acts per se. in my household for some reason Howdy was taboo, but science fiction cartoons, with some supervision, were okay, as were things such as (Topper) which I never could understand anyway but llike the vintage cars! Howdy Doody seems to be, but was not totally- a situation comedy- characters were three-dee sight gags- I am glad I never saw it.
