(5)  Deferred income taxes
     ---------------------
     Deferred taxes are recognized for differences between the basis of assets
     and liabilities for financial statements and income tax purposes.  The 
     deferred assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences of 
     those differences, which will be either taxable or deductible when the 
     assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.  The deferred tax 
     liability results from the recognition of unrealized gains, net of losses 
     on securities for financial statement purposes and recognition of gains or
     losses when securities are sold for income tax purposes, and the equity 
     method of accounting for the investment in subsidiary as explained under 
     Garden Life Plan, Ltd. above.   Under the equity method the Company's 
     share of earnings of the subsidiary is reported for tax purposes only 
     when distributions of earnings are received as dividends.

     The deferred tax asset results from the use of the reserve method in 
     accounting for uncollectible accounts receivable in the financial 
     statements and the use of the direct write-off method for income tax 
     purpose, and the accrual of vacation and sick leave when earned for the 
     financial statements and the recognition for income tax purposes when paid.

     At August 31, 1998 the Company's retained earnings included approximately 
     $1,663,336 of undistributed earnings of Garden Life Plan, Ltd.

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



Changes in financial condition

There have been no material adverse changes in financial condition from the 
end of the preceding fiscal year to the end of the current quarter ended 
August 31, 1998.

The working capital and working capital ratio at August 31, 1998 reflected 
strong liquidity as follows:
  
          [S]                             [C]
          Working capital                  $ 2,271,250
          Working capital ratio                6.7:1


Changes in results of operations

Net Sales and Services - Net sales and services in 1998 decreased by 3.1% over 
1997.  The decrease resulted principally from decreases in merchandise sales 
and funeral service revenues as a result of a shift toward private services. 

Cost of Sales and Services - Cost of sales and services as a percent of net 
sales decreased to 76.2% in 1998 from 77.8% in 1997.  The decrease is due to a
decrease in the cost of merchandise sales , supplies and real property taxes.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses - Selling, general and 
administrative expenses, as a percent of net sales, decreased from 25.5% in 
1997 to 24.8% in 1998.   The decrease resulted from decreases in professional 
fees offset by increases in accruals for profit sharing and bad debts 
expenses.

Income Taxes - The effective income tax rate is 40.0% for 1998 and 37.8% for 
1997.

Other Income (Expense) - Other income as a percent of net sales and services 
decreased to 5.8% in 1998 from 6.3% in 1997.  The decrease resulted primarily 
from a decrease in gains on sale of securities.
