NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
         financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present
         fairly the financial position as of June 1, 1997 and the results of
         operations and cash flows for the six-months ended June 1, 1997 and
         June 2, 1996.

Note 2 - The results of operations for the six months ended June 1, 1997 and
         June 2, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
         expected for the full year.

Note 3 - In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS
         No. 128, "Earnings per Share", which established new standards for
         computations of earnings per share. Statement No. 128 will be effective
         for periods ending after December 15, 1997 and will require
         presentation of: (1) "Basic Earnings per Share", computed by dividing
         income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number
         of common shares outstanding during the period and (2) "Diluted
         Earnings per Share", which gives effect to all dilutive potential
         common shares that were outstanding during the period, by increasing
         the denominator to include the number of additional common shares that
         would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had
         been issued. Had FAS 128 been effective for the six months ended June
         1, 1997 and June 2, 1996, basic and diluted earnings per share would
         have been as follows:

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

Results of Operations:
- --------------------- 

Six Months ended June 1, 1997 Compared to Six Months ended June 2, 1996.

Net shipments during the first six months of 1997 decreased by $1,545,000, or
2.2%, to $68,328,000 from $69,873,000 in 1996.  Management believes that
shipments decreased primarily from the decision in 1996 to eliminate or de-
emphasize certain unprofitable product categories and recent softness at retail
in the furniture industry.

Gross profit during the first six months of 1997 increased by $2,224,000, or
13.7%, to $18,473,000 from $16,249,000 in 1996.  Gross profit as a percentage of
net shipments during the first six months in 1997 increased to 27.0% from 23.3%
in 1996.  Positively impacting gross margins were improvements in product mix ,
manufacturing efficiency improvements and in the second quarter, favorable
adjustments to accruals for health and medical expenditures.

Selling and administrative expenses during the first six months of 1997
decreased by $126,000, or 1.0%, to $13,056,000 from $13,182,000 in 1996. Selling
and administrative expenses as a percentage of net shipments during the first
six months of 1997 were 19.1% versus 18.9% in 1996.

Operating income was $5,417,000 versus $3,067,000 in the prior year.  The
increase primarily reflects higher gross margins in 1997.

Net interest expense during the first six months of 1997 decreased by $49,000,
or 24.6%, to $150,000 from $199,000 in 1996.  The decrease in net interest
expense resulted from reduced long-term debt and reduction in short-term
borrowings.

Other income during the first six months of 1997 increased by $74,000 to
$786,000 from $712,000 in 1996.  The increase in other income was due primarily
to a gain from sale of rental property located in Leesburg, Florida partially
offset by reduced rental income from a vacancy in rental property located in
Christiansburg, VA.

The effective tax rate for the first half of 1997 was 37.2% versus 39.6% in
1996, primarily reflecting the favorable settlement of a state tax litigation.

Net earnings during the first six months of 1997 increased by $1,640,000 to
$3,803,000 from $2,163,000 in 1996 primarily reflecting an increase in gross
profit percentage, lower operating expenses and a reduction in the effective tax
rate.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------
(UNAUDITED) - CONTINUED
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Liquidity and Source of Capital:
- ------------------------------- 

The Company has historically financed its operations and capital requirements
with internally generated funds and bank or other financing.  The Company has
controlled its capital requirements by improving operating efficiencies in
various aspects of its business, including inventory and receivable management,
labor productivity and product distribution.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $4,718,000 during the first six
months of 1997 versus $2,510,000 in 1996.  Fluctuations in net cash provided by
operating activities are primarily the result of changes in operating income and
changes in working capital accounts.

Capital expenditures were $1,342,000 during the first six months of 1997 and
$1,512,000 in 1996.  These expenditures were incurred primarily in connection
with maintaining the Company's production capacity and certain additions of
equipment and systems.

Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of 1997 was
$5,113,000 versus  $947,000 in 1996.  In 1997, these activities related
primarily to the decrease in short-term borrowings, cash dividends and purchase
of treasury stock.

The Company had current maturities only on long-term debt of $327,000 at June 1,
1997.

The Company has unsecured short-term bank lines of credit totaling $22 million.
The interest rates on those lines of credit do not exceed the prime rate.  The
amount outstanding under the lines of credit as of June 1, 1997 was
approximately $1.6 million.

Management believes that net cash provided by operating activities and available
bank lines of credit will be sufficient to fund anticipated growth and to meet
the Company's anticipated capital requirements and operating needs through 1997.
