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


     Operating revenues increased by $130,110 (4.3%) in the quarter ended
March 31, 1995 compared to 1994.  Local service revenues increased by
$48,302, (6.9%), for the three months ended March 31, 1995 over the
comparable 1994 period.  This increase resulted primarily from an increase
of 5.5% in the number of access lines served by the Company from March 31,
1994 to March 31, 1995.  Network service revenues increased by $81,804
(3.9%) for the three-month period ended March 31 1995 compared to 1994.
Network service revenues for 1994 include a settlement of about $43,500
from Southern New England Telephone for certain jointly-provided circuits.

     Total operating expenses increased by $86,598 (4.0%) in the quarter
ended March 31, 1995, compared to 1994.  An increase in maintenance
expenses of $66,255 (10.5%) was partially offset by a decrease in general
office expenses of $44,811 (12.6%), in the first quarter of 1995 compared
to 1994, as certain personnel were reassigned from corporate operations to
plant operations.  In addition, maintenance costs in the first quarter of
1995 included additional charges to update certain data processing
applications systems.  Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by
$53,569 (8.5%) for the 1995 period compared to 1994, reflecting increased
investment in telephone plant in service.  Other income increased by
$83,020 (128.9%) for the three-month period in 1995 over the comparable
1994 period, due primarily to increased charges for rental of equipment
effective in May 1994.

     As of March 31, 1995 current assets exceeded current liabilities by
$3,131,205 reflecting an increase of $505,246 compared to December 31,
1994.  Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 1995 was $558,164, an increase of $35,182 over the comparable
period for 1994.  The Company anticipates that available cash, including
that provided by current operating activities, will be sufficient to cover
capital expenditures and dividends for the remainder of 1995.
