This is to certify that Miss Lille
b. Moore has studied music with
the violin with Prof. S. B. Walton,
Dallas most noteworthy musician,
a man whose musical education bears
high musicianship. Prof S. B. Wal
ton studied music in Chicago at the
Campbells Conservatory with the
most eminent teachers and experts
of music. He also specialized in all
kinds of musical instruments, Band
ana Cchestra, Piano and Voice, Com
position and Harmony.
Miss Lille B. Moore studied one
year and seven months, and finished
the entire school of the most upto-
date course in Violin Music. The
five books by Christian Heinrich
Honnann, with text in German and
English revised by DR.. Ihos. Baker,
in Schimer's Library of Musical
Classics.
Miss Moore also completed all
positions most used, FROM one to
seven, by NORTH BOILER, book one
and two, OPP. 81 and scale book stud
les book one and two, by II. Shrad
ieck, OPP. so. The technics of bow

not mentioned here.
Miss Moore's musical studies have
ben carefully selected for a thorough
grounding in Violin playing. Miss
Moore has finished all the technics
most popular in one year and seven
months, and she is herewith granted
diploma of her work. and is rec
omended to take course of higher
STUDY, with the Violin under some
good expert. Some good Conserva-
tories are recommended here, Chicogo,
Boston, Harvard and Fisk University.
Miss Moore is one of thousand
that has stuck to her studies and
finished them all well. All the time
during this precious study, Prof.
Walton suggested some helpful sup
Elementary studies and pieces that
would advance her in the art OF
keeping time, and a more practical
knowledge of accumulation, which
most pupils value but little. But
Miss Moore preferred to finish all
of her studies before she tried any
pieces, because she feared that she
may meet with some musical term
that she had not reached in study,
so when she had finished she would
be able to play any musical compo-
sition placed before her.
Prof. S. B. Walton has been in
Dallas for IS years, and to his kn0wl-
edge Miss Moore is the only Col
Crsd pupil OF music to finish a
thorough course of study in music
during these IS years, with any mus
ical instrument.
Miss Moore has planned to study
Harmony and Composition and 0ches-
tration. Miss Moore has suggested
to organize an 0chestra of ladies
and gentlemen, and pupils of the
advance studies of music for the
benefit of Dallas music talents, and
wants all young men and ladies to
study and accomplish something for
Dallas in this year 1919.
