Measure : A measure is place between two vertical bar lines.  



Time signature is written after the clef. The upper number shows the number of beats in a bar, and the bottom number shows the type of beat. 



In this picture the upper number 3 shows that there will be 3 beats in a bar, and the bottom number 4 shows each beat will be 1/4th note.
