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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Working Capital was $13.5 million at June 1, 1998 and $12.9
million at the end of the first quarter.  Net cash provided by
operating activities amounted to $2.3 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 $0.38 million this year and $1.39 million last year.  Cash
dividends of $1.46 million were paid during this year's first
quarter compared to $1.46 million last year.  Cash in the amount of
$0.23 million was used to purchase treasury stock this year, and
none was used last year, and $0.18 million of cash was used to
increase investment securities this year compared to $1.20 million
last year. The Company's current ratio was 2.78 to 1.00 at August
31, 1998.

Operating Results

     For the three months ended August 31, 1998, total revenues
decreased 2.9% from the comparable period in fiscal 1998.  Cost of
sales was 47.0% of net sales compared to 45.1% last year. Selling, 
general and administrative expenses were 50.5% of net sales this 
year and 49.9% last year.

     The Company's investment income as a percentage of pre-tax
income was 4.2% this year compared to 3.2% last year. There was an
actual dollar decrease in investment income of $37.4%, but pre-tax
income decreased 51.3%.

     The Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter was
34.6% compared to 36.3% for last year's first quarter.

Year 2000 Compliance

     As previously reported in the Company's MD&A for the year
ended May 31, 1998, the necessary modifications for year 2000
Compliance are being made and all of them will be completed in ample
time to avoid problems. The projected date for completion of all
modifications is May 31, 1999. Internal staff is being used
primarily for this conversion and the cost of the project is
immaterial to the Company.
