NOTE A:  Earnings (loss) per Common Share
- -----------------------------------------

shares outstanding (exclusive of shares held in treasury).  The number of
shares outstanding at September 30, 1995, was 636,889.

                             and Results of Operations
                       ------------------------------------ 

     Earnings decreased in the first quarter of 1995 over the first quarter of
1994 by $23,333.  Although sales increased by $15,415, Operating costs
decreased by $29,165, and Interest expense declined by $20,626, the Cost of
Goods increased by $88,539.  Efforts to improve purchasing from publishers and
to review customer pricing are in place.  It is believed this will improve the
situation in future quarters.

     Increased sales overseas has resulted in a slow down in payments. 
Accounts over 90 days have been increased from 8.15% of Accounts Receivable in
1994 to 14.8% in 1995.  Additional efforts to contact customers earlier in the
payment cycle are being made to reduce the percentage of unpaid accounts.
