            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1. Basis of Presentation - In the opinion of management, the accompanying
   unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements of the
   Corporation contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
   accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June
   30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and the results of operations and cash
   flows for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.  The consolidated
   condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation,
   its principal subsidiary, Home Beneficial Life Insurance Company (the Life
   Company), and its other subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany
   accounts and transactions are eliminated.

   The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with
   the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation's
   1994 Annual Report to Stockholders.

2. In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
   Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, "Accounting for Creditors
   for Impairment of a Loan."  SFAS No 114 requires that impaired loans be
   valued at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at
   the loan's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the
   loan's observable market price, or the fair market value of the
   collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent.  The Corporation adopted
   the provisions of SFAS No. 114 as of January 1, 1995.  Adoption of this
   Standard does not have any significant effect on the financial condition
   or results of operations of the Corporation.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

   Financial Condition

   The Corporation is primarily engaged in the life insurance business which
   historically has provided a positive cash flow.  By statute, the Life
   Company is required to invest in quality securities which provide ample
   protection for its policyholders.  Policy liabilities of the Life Company
   are predominately long term in nature and are supported primarily by long
   term fixed maturity investments and mortgage loans on real estate.
   Assets totaled $1.3 billion at June 30, 1995 with investment assets
   totalling $1.2 billion or 90% of total assets.  Both total assets and
   invested assets increased over year-end 1994 results.  The Corporation's
   fixed maturity and equity securities portfolio is classified in the
   balance sheet as available-for-sale and carried at fair value.  At June
   30, 1995 the fair value of these securities exceeded their cost by $32
   million.  At June 30, 1995 there were no principal and interest payments
   past due on fixed maturities, and over 99% of the mortgage loans on real
   estate were current for both principal and interest.  
   In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
   Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, "Accounting for Creditors
   for Impairment of a Loan."  SFAS No. 114 requires that impaired loans be
   valued at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at
   the loan's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the
   loan's observable market price, or the fair market value of the
   collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent.  The Corporation adopted
   the provisions of SFAS 114 as of January 1, 1995.  Adoption of this
   Standard does not have any significant effect on the financial condition
   or results of operations of the Corporation.
   The Life Company continually matches the investment portfolio to the cash
   flow demands of the types of insurance being written and maintains
   adequate cash and short term investments to meet cash requirements for
   policy loans and voluntary policy terminations, as well as investment
   commitments.  Policy loans account for less than 5% of total cash and
   invested assets.
   As disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as of
   December 31, 1994, $140 million of consolidated stockholders' equity
   represents net assets of the Life Company that cannot be transferred in
   the form of dividends, loans or advances to the Corporation.  However,
   this poses no liquidity concerns to the Corporation as it has sufficient
   cash flow to meet its operational requirements.
   
   Results of Operations

   Net income for the first six months of 1995 was $18,466,223 compared to
   $17,947,129 for the same period in 1994.  Realized investment gains and
   losses were insignificant for the two periods.
   Individual life insurance sales for 1995 increased by 15% and amounted to
   $451 million compared to $389 million for the first half of 1994. 
   Premiums increased in both the first and second quarter of 1995.
   Net investment income, excluding realized investment gains and losses,
   increased 4% compared to a decrease of 3.5% for the 1994 period.  The
   improvement for 1995 results from growth in portfolio assets.  The
   decrease for 1994 was attributable to the downward trend experienced in
   portfolio interest rates during 1993 and 1992, and the use of $14 million
   of internally generated funds to repurchase approximately 600,000 shares
   of common stock in the second quarter of 1993.
