Dear Fellow Shareholders:

     After years of writing this commentary, I am finally
speechless.  The strength of the stock market rally during
this past quarter was stronger than just about anyone
expected.  The rally was especially impressive given the
lackluster performance of the first quarter.  We
participated in the market rally as our Fund appreciated by
12% during this recent quarter, and 16% for the year to
date.

     There are many things working in the stock market's
favor at this time.  Inflation is low, economic growth is
moderate, interest rates are declining, and new money
continues to flow into the financial markets.  As long as
corporate profits continue to grow, the stock market has a
firm foundation.

     Our fund has continued to grow from new contributions
and appreciation of existing investments.  During the
quarter we increased our holdings of many top performers,
including Travelers, MBNA Corp., and General Electric.  At
the same time we reduced our allocation to Cyprus Amax
Minerals and Delta Airlines.

     Our investment discipline is to remain fully invested,
but the recent strength of the stock market makes it
difficult to identify stocks that are inexpensive.
Investing new cash is further complicated by the fact that
the recent market leaders are some of the most richly valued
companies.

     Our strategy over the next several months will be to
invest in companies that are reasonably valued and have the
potential to outperform the market.  We will look for
companies with earnings from new products or new markets,
companies that will benefit from more efficient operations,
or companies in industries that could prosper in an economy
that is growing moderately with low inflation.

                                   Sincerely,
                                   Daniel A. Morris
