Prettiest Little Town in Texas?

Serving the community of Howe since 1963

Presidents’ Day is an
American holiday celebrated
on the third Monday in
February. Originally
established in 1885 in
recognition of President
George Washington, it is still
officially called
“Washington’s Birthday” by
the federal government.
Traditionally celebrated on
February 22—Washington’s
actual day of birth—the
holiday became popularly
known as Presidents’ Day
after it was moved as part of
1971’s Uniform Monday
Holiday Act, an attempt to
create more three-day
weekends for the nation’s
workers. While several states
still have individual holidays
honoring the birthdays of
Washington, Abraham
Lincoln and other figures,
Presidents’ Day is now
popularly viewed as a day to
celebrate all U.S. presidents
past and present.
The story of Presidents’ Day
date begins in 1800.
Following President George
Washington’s death in 1799,
his February 22 birthday
became a perennial day of
remembrance. At the time,
Washington was venerated as
the most important figure in
American history, and events
like the 1832 centennial of
his birth and the start of
construction of the
Washington Monument in
1848 were cause for national
celebration.

primed to revive the vision
of Miss Roberts from long
ago and once again make
Howe "The Prettiest Little
Town in Texas."
Members of Keep Howe Beautiful execute the 2015 master plan to make Howe
"The Prettiest Little Town in Texas."
The year was 1940 and
Howe was the talk of not
only radio programs all over
Texas, but also was featured
in Readers Digest, The
Rotarian and The Dallas
Morning News. It was all
because of Miss Mame
Roberts and her vision to
turn Howe from a dreary,
shabby drive-through town
from Dallas to Sherman
along Highway 75 (Denny
Street) to a beautiful city
full of zinnias throughout
the community.
That project and vision
labeled Howe as "The
Prettiest Little Town in
Texas" back in 1940.
Roberts said in a 1940
interview for The
Rotarian. "With a united
effort, we can make the
place in which we live
clean, wholesome, and
attractive. We can make
the crowded city dweller
homesick to come back to
us and to real living. We
can bring new life, new
business, new beauty, to
the little towns."

or plants and trees of their choice.
"This is a fully-functional city-wide operation
involving citizens rolling up their sleeves to
help share in the pride of knowing that we, as
Howe, have something special to hang our hats
on." said Keep Howe Beautiful President
Monte Walker. "I think in our meeting, there
was an overwhelming sense to not only do
something good for the city, but to do
something extraordinary for the city that
involves some equity from the citizens whether
that's monetary donations to the cause or good
old-fashioned sweat equity."
The organization has started a donation drive
online which is located at
http://www.gofundme.com/m4be3s. Donations
can be made also through mail at Keep Howe
Beautiful, P.O. Box 250, Howe, Texas 75459.
As soon as the last freeze occurs, the group will
be scheduling planting days in preparation for
the big Founders Day weekend in the last week
of April. With so many events taking place
throughout the town that weekend, KHB
thought that it would be great to have some of
the beautification done in time for vendors to
see part of the makeover.
New Beginnings Fellowship Church was the
first group to offer their services to the
project. The idea is for each yard, large, small, Mame Roberts was a former school teacher in
on the corner of a busy street, or hidden in a
Howe and upon retirement began her crusade
back alley to dress-up their yards in zinnias
for the beautification miracle that happened in
Page #2
Howe. No dollar-studded wand-waving from
Washington D.C. achieved the miracle. W.P.
Thompson, Mayor of Howe was a lover of
flowers. He and a city councilman became a
booster. They gave each of the churches $5 to
start beautification funds. The churches
matched the money and started to landscape
their grounds. When Howe couldn't meet the
requirements for Public Works and National
Youth Administration projects, the citizens
rolled up their sleeves and said, "Well, we'll
just do it ourselves."
Miss Roberts got upset while listening to a
Dallas radio program that saluted Texas towns
and only mentioned the big cities. She
demanded recognition and was put on the air
by the program director. Lynn Landrum of
The Dallas Morning News heard the program
and suggested in his column that Howe should
look after its own welfare. This upset Roberts
even further and before too long Roberts had
made the proclamation to Landrum that Howe
would be "The Prettiest Little Town in Texas."
Roberts was successful and Landrum visited
the town to smell the flowers and eat crow.
Roberts will be inducted into the Howe Hall of
Honor on April 24 along with 11 other key
members to the history and betterment of
Howe. Along with her will be the former
Mayor W.P. Thompson, who helped kick-start
the mission.
Keep Howe Beautiful's 2015 mission is the
same as Roberts' plan 77 years ago. They just
want a beautiful town and for the uplifting
feeling of pride that comes from a community
that believes in themselves.

Lady Bulldogs rip Whitesboro, 74-56;
Smith scores 37

Senior Alissa Smith answered the
bell when junior Riley Harvey went
down with an injury last week vs.
Ponder. All Smith did Tuesday vs.
Whitesboro, in her last home game,
was score 37 points to lead the
Lady Bulldogs to a 74-56 win.
Smith was 11 of 19 from the field
including five three-pointers in six
attempts. She also nailed down 10
of 14 free throws.
The Howe girls got off to a decent
start in their first period without
center Riley. They were able to
lead at the end of the first period by
a score of 21-14 by playing a style
of "small ball with both point
guards Madisyn Hargrove and
Peyton Streetman in the game for
the majority of the game.
Howe extended the lead and put the
game clearly in the rearview mirror
by scoring 17 fourth period points
while only allowing 12 to round out
the 74-56 win.
The win makes the Lady Bulldog
25-6 on the season and finished 122 in District 13-3A trailing only
Pottsboro, who went 14-0. Howe's
two district losses came at the
hands of The Lady Cardinals.
Streetman, seeing more minutes in
the absence of Riley had 13 points
and six rebounds on the evening.
Darci Foster added 12 and
Anderson finished with 10 on the
night. Hargrove rounded out the
scoring with two.

just fell in to place."
While Smith was able to make up
for the points Riley normally has; it
was Kayla Anderson who made up
for the rebounds. Anderson totaled
nine boards overall to lead the Lady
Bulldogs on the evening. Smith
also had seven of her own.
The Lady Bulldogs will travel to

When a team has as great of a
defense as great as their offense, it
usually means that their in the
discussion amongst the greatest
teams anywhere around. The
Whitesboro Bearcats proved on
Tuesday night in Howe why they
are the 6-ranked team in the State
of Texas according to the Texas
Association of Basketball Coaches.
Howe just couldn't get anything ontrack early going and found
themselves with only six points
after the first period due to the
stingy Bearcat defense. Much of
the night seemed as if Whitesboro
had six or even seven defenders on
the court with their stout man-toman coverage.
While Whitesboro was shutting
down the Bulldogs offensive
production, they piled on the points
on the other side by drilling several
early three-pointers and quickly
penetrating the lane.
The loss doesn't hurt the playoff
chances for the Bulldogs in the
least bit due to already trailing
Whitesboro in the standings.
Howe, now 19-10 on the season
and 7-5 in District 10-3A sits right
behind Whitesboro, who's won 11
in a row now and Ponder, who is
the 7-ranked team in the state.
Finishing behind those two teams
in district play is no failure of any
sort as District 10-3A fairs to be
one of the, if not the toughest boys
basketball district in the entire
state.

“Do to others as you would have
them do to you,” Luke 6:31. God
didn’t make things all that
complicated. Just think, if
everyone treated others as they
wanted to be treated all issues of
hate, self-centeredness, control,
violence, abuse, theft, murder,
adultery, disrespect, abandonment,
gossip, jealousy and envy,
cheating (insert here what I left
out) would be solved overnight.
We are born with an innate desire
to have our needs fulfilled. Infants
don’t care about what you want.
They don’t want to be hungry, wet
or tired. They want to be held
when they want to be and put
down when they want to be. Your
needs don’t change their wants.
What if we were that head strong
about making each other happy?
“Let love be your only debt! If
you love others, you have done all
that the Law demands. In the Law
there are many commands, such
as, “Be faithful in marriage. Do
not murder. Do not steal. Do not
want what belongs to others.” But
all these are summed up in the
command that says, “Love others
as much as you love yourself.” No
one who loves others will harm
them. So love is all the Law
demands,” Romans 13:8-10. If the
commandment to love others as you
love yourself was fulfilled no other
commandment would be needed.
“Love the Lord your God with all
your heart, with all your soul, with
all your mind and with all your
strength. The second of this; Love
your neighbor as yourself. There is

The Howe Bulldogs roared out of
the gate and led 17-8 after the first
period and never looked back from
then. Thanks to four threepointers from three different
players, Howe racked up the
points while playing stingy
defense. Michael Kehrer hit two
early three-pointers to add to one
each by Levi Mrozinski and Sam
Akins.
Pilot Point fought back in the
second period and trailed only by
three the half, down 30-27. Howe
held a six point lead after three,
44-38 before finishing out the win,
69-59.
The win puts Howe at 20-10 on
the season and 8-5 in District 103A. This following a season with
only nine wins a year ago. The
Bulldogs will finish out the regular
season in Gunter on Tuesday
night. If the Bulldogs take care
of business in Gunter, they will be
the third seed in the playoffs.
However, should Gunter win and
Pottsboro win, there could be a
playoff game between Howe and
Pottsboro to determine seed.
Kehrer led all scorers in the game
with 26 points. Morozinski
followed right behind him with 20
of his own. Nick Wilson added

Griffin Underwood rounded out
the scoring with five points.

Kehrer finished the game with four
