             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Working Capital was $15.9 million at June 1, 1997 and $15.0
million at the end of the first quarter.  Net cash provided by
operating activities amounted to $4.1 million for the quarter this
year compared to $4.1 million for last year's first quarter.

     Additions to property, plant and equipment, net of disposals,
were $1.39 million this year and $0.98 million last year.  Cash
dividends of $1.46 million were paid during this year's first
quarter compared to $1.43 million last year.  No cash was used to
purchase treasury stock this year or last year, and $1.20 million
of cash was used to increase investment securities this year
compared to $1.06 million last year.  The Company's current ratio
was 2.60 to 1.00 at August 31, 1997.

Operating Results

     For the three months ended August 31, 1997, total revenues
decreased 5.1% from the comparable period in fiscal 1997.  Cost of
sales was 45.1% of net sales compared to 44.8% last year. Selling, 
general and administrative expenses were 49.9% of net sales this 
year and 50.5% last year. The improvement in this percentage was
due to a significant decrease in advertising and promotional
expense.

     The Company's investment income as a percentage of pre-tax
income was 3.2% this year compared to 4.6% last year. This was due
to an actual dollar decrease in investment income of 29.4%.

     The Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter was
36.3% compared to 35.4% for last year's first quarter.
