Note 3.  Regulators of the corporation and its subsidiaries have
implemented risk-based capital guidelines which requires the
maintenance of certain minimum capital as a percent of assets and
certain off-balance sheet items adjusted for predefined credit risk factors.
The regulatory minimum for Tier and combined Tier 1 and Tier 2
capital ratios were 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively.  Tier 1 capital includes
tangible common shareholder's equity reduced by goodwill and certain
other intangibles.  Tier 2 capital includes portions of the allowance for
loan losses, not to exceed Tier 1 capital. In addition to the risk-based
guidelines, a minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital as a percentage of
average total consolidated assets) of 4.0% is required.  This minimum
may be increased by at least 1.0% or 2.0% for entities with higher levels
of risk or that are experiencing or anticipating significant growth.  The
following table contains the capital ratios for the Corporation and it's
subsidiary as of June 30, 1997.

PART 1.  ITEM 2.

     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
       and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis is provided to address information about
the Company's financial condition and results of operations which is not
otherwise apparent from the consolidated financial statements incorporated
by reference or included in this report.  Reference should be made to those
statements for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis.

     Results of Operations

Results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1997 reflected
net income of $974 thousand, an increase of 25.84% over net income reported
for the corresponding period in 1996.  Operating results of the Company
when measured as a percentage of average equity reveals an increase in
return on average equity from 11.42% for the six-month period in 1996
to 12.62% for the corresponding period in 1997. 

Return on average assets at .87% remain unchanged from the comparable 1996
period.  The increase in the return on average equity is the result of
a higher net income for the 1997 second quarter over the corresponding 1996
second quarter.

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1997
increased 27.40%, approximately $858 thousand over the comparable
1996 period.  Average interest-earning assets increased approximately
$45.90 million from June 30, 1996 to the current period while
average interest-bearing liabilities increased $40.57 million during the
same comparative period. The yield on average interest-earning assets
decreased 22 basis points to 8.36% in 1997 as compared to 8.54% in
1996.  The yield on average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 12 basis
points to 5.37% in 1997 as compared to 5.49% in 1996.

Through the second quarter of 1997, provision for possible loan losses
totaled $390 thousand, a $255 thousand increase from the corresponding
period in 1996.  The Company continually monitors the loan portfolio for
signs of credit weaknesses or developing collection problems. Levels for
each period are determined after evaluating the loan portfolio and
determining the level necessary to absorb current charge-offs and maintain
the reserve at adequate levels.  Net charge-offs in the second quarter of
1997 were $141 thousand compared with $157 thousand in 1996.  Net charge-offs
were .08% of total loans for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 as compared to
 .13% for the 1996 quarter end. Loan loss reserves increased 49.10% over
June 30, 1996 to $1,321 thousand at June 30, 1997. Reserves as of June 30,
1997 represent .75% of total loans versus .67% at June 30, 1996.       

     Financial Position

Total loans have increased from $131.3 million at June 30, 1996 to
$175.2 million at June 30, 1997.  The loan to deposit ratio has
increased from 80.47% at June 30, 1996 to 84.85% at June 30, 1997.
Loan demand continues at a high pace even with a competitive market
area.  




<PAGE>9
Non-performing assets are comprised of loans on non-accrual status
and loans contractually past due 90 days or more and still accruing
interest.  Non-performing assets were $823 thousand at June 30, 1997
or .47% of total loans, compared with $254 thousand at June 30, 1996.

Securities totaled $39.3 million (market value) at June 30, 1997 which
reflects an increase of $3.2 million or 8.86%  from the June 30, 1996
total of $36.1 million.  The majority of this increase is in purchases
of adjustable rate securities in order to match the current volatile
rate environment.  Securities, as of June 30, 1997 are comprised
of U.S. Treasuries, approximately 7.63% of the total securities portfolio,
obligations of the U.S. Government Agencies, approximately 87.15% of the total
securities portfolio, municipal issues, approximately 2.46% of the securities
portfolio,and equity securities, approximately 2.76% of the securities
portfolio.  The Company's entire security portfolio is classified as
available for sale for both 1997 and 1996.  

Total stockholder's equity of the Company was $15.8 million at June
30, 1997, representing an increase of $2.4 million or 17.79% over
June 30, 1996.  The Company maintains a significant level of liquidity
in the form of cash and cash equivalents ($7.6 million at June 30, 1997), and
investment securities available for sale ($39.3 million).  Cash is
immediately available for satisfaction of deposit withdrawals, customer
credit needs and operations of the Company.  Investment securities available
for sale represent a secondary level of liquidity available for conversion
to liquid funds in the event of extraordinary needs.
