EXHIBIT 10.8
DIRECTOR AND OFFICER COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS.  Directors who are not employees of the
Company are paid according to the following annual scale with no
payment of meeting fees:

             Audit Committee   Chair        $40,000
             Audit Committee   Member       $35,000
             Nominating Committee   Chair   $35,000
             All Other Outside Directors    $30,000

In addition, all directors are reimbursed for out of pocket expenses
related to attending board and committee meetings.  Non-employee
directors are eligible to receive awards of nonqualified stock options
which entitle them to purchase shares of our common stock at an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date
of grant. Such option grants are recommended on an annual basis by the
Compensation Committee, subject to approval by the Board of Directors.
These stock options also have varying vesting schedules ranging up to
five years and expire ten years after the date of grant.  During
fiscal year 2005, no stock options have been issued to directors.

NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

COMPENSATION COMPONENTS AND PROCESS.  Executive officer compensation
generally contains three principal components: (i) a base salary; (ii)
a cash bonus; and (iii) grants of options to purchase common stock.
Mr. Wright's and Ms. Evans' base salaries are also set forth in their
employment agreements.  Mr. Wright, Ms. Evans and Mr. Hoppner are
subject to annual increases as recommended by the Compensation
Committee to the Board of Directors.  The base salaries of other
officers are determined as a function of their prior base salaries and
their supervisors view of specific performance criteria.  In general,
the Compensation Committee has determined that the base salaries paid
to the Company's executive officers have fallen within the median
range of base salaries paid by comparable companies.

The process utilized by the Committee in determining executive officer
compensation levels for all of these components is based upon the
Committee's judgment and takes into account objective qualitative and
quantitative factors.  The Compensation Committee has approved an
executive compensation plan which established performance goals and
criteria relating to the amounts of cash bonuses to be paid to its
executive officers in future years.  In past years, under the 1994
Stock Option Plan, the Compensation Committee had granted stock
options to executives who met performance criteria on a discretionary
basis.  The 1994 Stock Option Plan expired on June 1, 2004, and the
Company has not adopted a replacement plan.

The bonus portion of Mr. Wright's, Ms. Evans's and Mr. Hoppner's
compensation is paid based upon the performance goals established by
management and approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board of
Directors up to 50% of the named executive's salary.  In addition to
bonuses paid in accordance with the executive compensation plan, the
Compensation Committee may recommend additional bonus amounts on a
discretionary basis if deemed appropriate.

The bonus portion of Mr. James' and Mr. Hinkefent's compensation is
determined on a discretionary basis upon their supervisor's assessment
of their individual performance and the overall performance of the
Company during the most recently completed fiscal year with respect to
stockholder value, stock price, sales growth and net income up to 50%
of the named executive's salary.  In general, the practice has been to
award cash bonuses to the executive officers with respect to a
particular fiscal year in amounts consistent with cash bonuses awarded
in prior fiscal years as long as the Company achieves established
financial and performance goals.

The following table represents the named executive officers' current
base compensation:

Executive Officer        Position                Fiscal 2005 Salary
-------------------      --------------          ------------------

William R. Hoppner       Sr. Vice President          $210,000

Michael D. James         Secretary, Treasurer and    $172,500

BENEFIT PLANS AND OTHER ARRANGEMENTS

Each of the named executives is eligible to participate in the
Company's broad-based benefit programs generally available to its
salaried employees, including the 401(k) plan; and health, disability
and life insurance programs.

In addition, Mr. Wright, Ms. Evans, and Mr. Hinkefent receive monthly
auto allowances of $2,000, $1,000, and $1,000, respectively.  The
