You don't need the JMenuSystem class. One suggestion would be to add a
createMenu() method to your JTMSApp class and call if from your constructor.
Copy the code in the JMenuSystem constructor into the createMenu() method
and get rid of JMenuSystem alltogether.

call setMenu() for JTMSApp and everything should be OK.

Your code currently sets the menu for a JFrame that is never displayed
(JMenuSystem ), thats why you dont see the menu.
