NOTE TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(Thousands of Dollars)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the Instructions to Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q
required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not
include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. However, the information
furnished reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The
results of operations for the three months ended August 31, 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the fiscal year
ending May 31, 1996.
The accounting policies followed by the Company in preparing interim
consolidated condensed financial statements are similar to those described in
the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in the Company's Form 10-K
Annual Report pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1995. For interim reporting purposes,
provisions for income taxes are recorded on the basis of the estimated annual
effective tax rate. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform with current year presentation.
An investment in the common stock of a foreign affiliated company is accounted
for by the equity method. The excess cost of the stock of this affiliate over
the Company's share of their net assets at the acquisition date is being
amortized on a straight line basis over 40 years.
Net earnings per share were computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the periods. The weighted average
number of shares outstanding for the three months ended August, 1995 and 1994
were computed based on the actual number of common shares outstanding.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
(Thousands of Dollars)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FIRST QUARTER ENDED AUGUST 31, 1995 COMPARED TO
FIRST QUARTER ENDED AUGUST 31, 1994
__________________________________________
Net sales increased 12.9% to $52,002 and gross profit increased by 11.9% to
$13,465. Approximately $2,500, or 5% of the sales increase for the quarter was
attributable to acquisitions added during the quarter ended August 31, 1995.
Additionally, national accounts sales in the distribution subsidiary were up.
Overall gross profit margins were slightly higher, due principally to changes in
the product mix in the distribution subsidiary. The manufacturing subsidiary's
sales increased 7.8% due to an increase in the number of unit sales in the
emergency shower and eye wash line marketed in addition to a pass through of
price increases for materials. Gross profit margins in the manufacturing
subsidiary were comparable to those in the previous year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10.2%, due in part to
increased marketing activity and related expenditures in the distribution
subsidiary, as well as certain non-capitalized expenses related to acquisitions
of businesses in the first quarter of fiscal 1996. Earnings from foreign
affiliates of $208 for the quarter ending August 31, 1995, increased 69.1% over
the previous year's quarter due to increased earnings reported by the Company's
50% owned Mexican affiliate, and includes the earnings recognized from the
Company's 50% ownership position in Century Sales and Services, Limited,
effective June 6, 1995, of $115. Interest expense increased 119.1% in the first
quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to the prior year, due to the Company's entering
into a credit arrangement with a major bank in July, 1995, related to the
acquisition of the business of Safety Centers, Incorporated (SCI).
Net earnings increased 30.8% in the quarter ended August 31, 1995 to $.22 per
common share, compared to $.17 in the previous year's first quarter, due
primarily to increased sales, slightly higher gross profit margins, and earnings
recognized from the above mentioned acquisitions during the quarter ended August
31, 1995.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

(Thousands of Dollars)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AUGUST 31, 1995 COMPARED TO MAY 31, 1995
____________________________________
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Cash flows provided by operations for the quarter ended August 31, 1995 totaled
to $1,988 compared to $4,290 in the comparable period of the prior year. The
reduction results from a net increase in inventories assumed from acquisitions
made during the quarter ended August 31, 1995, and a related decrease in trading
securities held, which were liquidated in part to provide funding for the
acquisitions.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $35, primarily from the use of cash for
acquisitions during the first quarter of fiscal 1996. Accounts receivable
increased $4,528 and inventory increased $8,118, primarily as a result of
acquisitions and based on increased sales levels. Net additions to property,
plant and equipment were $700. Additions were primarily for operating
equipment, computer hardware and software and assets added through acquisitions.
Accounts payable increased $8,009 as a result of increased operating levels and
acquisitions in the quarter ending August 31, 1995. Long-term debt increased
$5,618 due to debt issued in connection with acquisitions in the quarter ended
August 31, 1995 less required principal repayments. The issuance of common
stock shares from treasury in connection with acquisitions made during the
quarter ended August 31, 1995, had the effect of increasing paid-in capital by
$1,826, including the change in treasury stock held.
