Source: Provo Daily Enquirer, May 20, 1892. [This certificate is considered a high school document, since all subsequent graduates from the "Commercial College" without bachelor's degrees were high school graduates.] ~ ~ ~ ~ Herman Martin was a banker in Provo in the 1890s [cashier at the First National Bank in Provo, later a member of the Provo banking firm of Schwazer and Martin.] and early 1900s. He was a member of the Garden City Lodge 10 of the Knights of Pythias. ~ ~ ~ ~ News Article, February 1901: Romance ~ Two Prominent Provo People Married. The last act to a romance of no mean proportions or interest was performed and the curtain rung down on a matrimonial drama which almost merged into comedy and tragedy, when Justice of the Peace Thomas Champneys performed the marriage ceremony which bound together Herman S. Martin and Miss Daisy Moore of Provo late Saturday afternoon in this city [Ogden]. Martin is a young man of good business ability. He became engaged in the banking business at Provo with Rodney Swazey about [18]92 or [18]93 and shortly after was married to [Edith Beck, on September 12, 1894 in Provo] the daughter of Josiah Beck, a prominent jeweler of Provo. His newly made wife was an accomplished and prepossessing young lady and for a time their matrimonial bark sailed over smooth seas with a warm sun shining above and apparently nothing but fair weather ahead. Before long, however, his wife began to be jealous and looked with considerable suspicion upon the actions of her husband on account of his remaining away from home until a late hour in the night. She accused him of infidelity and charged Miss Moore, who was then a teacher in the public schools, as the co-respondent. This of course, Mr Martin denied, and claimed that the business at the bank was the cause of his being up late. Not to be put off and satisfied by any such excuse, she resolved to find out and so one evening she secreted herself where she would be able to see her husband leave the bank in case he might be in there. After a lengthy wait, and during the small hours, her watch was rewarded by seeing her hubby and Miss Moore emerge with stealthy step. Then a scene ensued in which the blonde locks of Miss Moore were made the object of attention, and after a sharp and determined conflict the little wife declared herself the winner, and marched the banker home. Proceedings for divorce were instituted on the part of the wife during the pending of which she met her rival on the street where another encounter took place in which parasols were freely used. The complaint in the case made such charges against Miss Moore that the school board decreed that an investigation of her alleged acts should be made. This was had and she was exonerated, but later resigned her position. A decree was granted by stipulation to the plaintiff after a considerable length of time, and shortly after the ex-Mrs. Martin went to Berlin to complete her musical education. Being free to wed again, the banker waited until interest in the matter subsided and then had the ceremony performed which made Miss Moore Mrs Martin No. 2. [Ogden Standard Examiner, February 11, 1901.] ~ ~ ~ ~ Daisy S. Moore was born on July 3, 1874 in Provo, Utah. Her parents were Stephen Bliss Moore and Eleanor Roseltha Colton Moore. Daisy Moore Martin died on September 27, 1963. ~ ~ ~ ~ A woman named Daisy Moore Martin received a B.A. Degree from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, approved by the University Senate October 6, 1919, and apparently awarded in November 1919. A photograph of Daisy Moore Martin appears in the 1920 Illio [University of Illinois yearbook]. ~ ~ ~ ~ Note: Despite the divorce, Edith Beck continued to use the surname Martin, including 1916, when her mother, Mrs. Josiah Beck, visited her daughter in Carbon County.

Faculty & Staff Late 1950s, including 1957-58 to 1961-1962, Music Instructor. James Mason. ~ ~ ~ ~ Director of BYU Museum of Art Has Traveled Work, But His Roads Always Return to Same Spot: Utah Valley. ~ ~ James Mason has traveled the world, but he always comes home to Utah Valley. Mason grew up across the street from the Springville Museum of Art - a foreshadowing of his future dreams and accomplishments. Mason is not only the director of the Museum of Art at Brigham Young University, he is also much more - the dreamer, fund-raiser and driving force behind the museum's creation. Growing up in Springville, Mason never thought his experiences would take him across the country and to such places as Beijing, China, and Warsaw, Poland. But he also knew he loved home. His longest absence from the valley was four years. Mason graduated from Springville High School in 1946. Eleven years later, in 1957 he began his long career in education, as a music instructor at Brigham Young High School for five years. From there he became a professor at BYU and then Chair of the BYU Music Department. Mason later moved to Chicago, where an accident changed his life. While directing an orchestra rehearsal, Mason fell backward off a 5-foot riser and was temporarily partially paralyzed. Soon he was asked to be editor of ``The Instrumentalist'' magazine, which was fortunate, Mason said, because he could no longer stand for rehearsals. Through his job as editor and subsequent experiences that came through the exposure he received there, Mason's life began to envelop art as well as music. ``That was my existentialist leap, or rather my existentialist fall,'' Mason said of the accident and its resultant good fortune. After his stint in Chicago, he returned home and served as Dean of the BYU College of Fine Arts and Communications for 11 years. It was during that tenure that Mason began dreaming of a BYU art museum. ``I don't know why I thought we could do it,'' he said of raising the $15.2 million it took to build the museum. But Mason believed it could - and should - be done. He began to seek funding for the museum, all of which had to come from the private sector. Mason simply shared his dream of a major art museum with others, and they responded, donating from $5 to millions of dollars. ``You don't ask for money; you cultivate money,'' he said. Now that the dream is established, Mason would like to see it become well-rooted in the community. ``I'd like to see the museum become an important part of the cultural lives of the people in the Intermountain region,'' he said. ``We want to do more than just hang and store pictures here.'' But Mason is happy to hang his hat in the valley. When he retires, he will stay here, but he won't quit working. ``I'll retire to something. I think I would die really fast without something,'' he said. And Mason takes that philosophy to heart. He believes everyone should be involved. ``Every-one can make a difference,'' he said. Mason just prefers making his difference near home. [By Rommyn Skipper, Deseret News Staff Writer, February 8, 1994.] ~ ~ ~ ~ James A.

Dr. Mason was the founding director of the Museum of Art at Brigham Young University. During his forty years at BYU he served as Chair of the Music Department and as Deam of the College of Fine Arts and Communications for eleven years. As Dean he was able to realize a dream he had for the university -- to build an innovative art museum. This required gaining permission to proceed with this venture as well as fundraising without using any University or Church funds. After completion of the Brigham Young University Museum of Art he was appointed its founding director. Some of the exhibits were: BYU's treasures, art from the Vatican Museums, Chinese museums, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. He grew up in Springville, Utah, across the street from the Springville Art Museum which had an influence on him throughout his life. His high school years were dominated by music. His studies at Brigham Young University were interrupted to serve in the Armed Forces during the Korean War. He received his bachelors and masters degrees from BYU and his doctoral degree from Arizona State University. While playing the French horn in the University's orchestra he met and married Lynne Galbraith, a violinist. They were married in the Salt Lake Temple. He began teaching music in Nebo School District and after completing his master's degree was hired by Brigham Young University High School. Five years later he joined the University's Music Department. He was given an extended leave for professional activities. After serving as editor of the Utah Music Educator, he accepted a job in Chicago as editor of the Instrumentalist, a monthly music magazine. He left to complete his doctoral degree. While teaching at BYU he wrote News of Research column for the Journal of Research in Music Education. He was elected President of the Western Division of the National Organization of Music Educators (MENC) and some years later was elected National President of MENC with more than a 100,000 members. He taught as a visiting professor at Northwestern University, Indiana University, University of Texas, and Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. He lectured at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing, China and was the American speaker at the International Conference on Music Education in Warsaw, Poland. He served on a number of boards including the Music Education Research Council in Washington, D.C., The Barlow Foundation for Music, The Music Council in New York City, the Music Industry Council in Chicago, the Presser Foundation in Philadelphia, Utah's Statehood Centennial Commission, Utah Opera Board, and Utah Museum Council. He was a co-founder of the Utah Valley Symphony. During these years of service he received many awards and recognitions consisting of an award from the Israeli Government, two awards from Educational Press Association of America, the San Francisco Art Critics Award, the Utah Outstanding Music Educators Award, the Utah Museum Association Award, the Reed Smoot Award, the Arthur Watkins Award, the Franklin S. Harris Award, the BYU Alumni Award and the Life-time Achievement Award from the Mormon Arts Committee. He has been listed in Who's Who in America. He served in many callings in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In addition to teaching he served as elder's quorum president in three different wards, high councilor in three stakes, bishop in two wards, and on the General Music Committee. He served on an advisory committee for the development of the LDS Conference Center. Although James achieved international recognition for his professional work, his proudest accomplishment was his dear family.
