Ternary Graphics

These exercises consist in drawing the Graphics
     for the separate small levels of the songs in the list below,
          the same work we did for the Graphics of small binary levels inTour 5,
          but this time with the songs we used for theternary Footsies-
     1. Always start with the smallest level, that of the shortest note-value.
     2. Review the Footsies.
     3. Then place theR(ight Foot) Beat,L(eft Foot) Off-beat, possibly theT(ouch) "Super-Off-beat",
               with each note-value at a different elevation -
          (a) TheRBeat will be the lowest.
          (b) TheLOff-beat will be higher.
          (c) TheTSuper-Off-beat (at the small level), if there is one, will be the highest.
          (d) If a level starts withLorT, it will produce a Pick-up at the next larger level.
     4. Move on to the next larger level -
          Place the note-values higher (or lower) according to the feet.
     5. When you findLevel 0there is not much point in going farther,
          all the larger levels are binary and regular.
     6. You might like to check the Graphcs of the separate levels for the3 preceding songs-
           Rock-a-Bye Baby,Oh Where Oh Where Is My Little Dog Gone, and Happy Birthday.
     7. These separate ternary level graphics should not be more difficult than they were for binary levels.
     8. Drawing the integrated levels is evidently more difficult.
