MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


EARNINGS SUMMARY

     Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $1,983,000, 
an increase of 26.5% over 1994's net income of $1,567,000.

     Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was $721,000, 
compared to $606,000 in 1994, an increase of 19.0%.

     Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was 
$6,480,000, a 6.6% increase over 1994's net interest income of $6,078,000.  
Total interest income of $12,216,000 is a 19.8% increase over 1994's total 
interest income of $10,196,000.  Total interest expense of $5,736,000 is a 
39.3% increase over 1994's total interest expense of $4,118,000.

     Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was 
$2,188,000, a 2.1% increase over 1994's net interest income of $2,142,000.  
Total interest income of $4,224,000 is a 16.4% increase over 1994's total 
interest income of $3,630,000.  Total interest expense of $2,036,000 is a 
36.8% increase over 1994's total interest expense of $1,488,000. 

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     No provision to the allowance for loan losses was made during the first 
nine months of 1995.  The allowance for loan losses is deemed adequate as 
calculated in accordance with Banking Circular #201 and with respect to FAS 
114/118.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

     Non-interest income of $704,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 
1995 was an increase of 1.0% from 1994's non-interest income of $697,000.

     Non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was 
$301,000, a 35.6% increase from the same period a year ago.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

     Non-interest expense of $4,282,000 for the nine months ended September 
30, 1995 is a decrease of 5.9% from 1994's non-interest expense of $4,552,000.

     Non-interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was 
$1,432,000, a 7.5% decrease from 1994's non-interest expense of $1,548,000.

INCOME TAXES

     Income taxes on operating earnings increased to $919,000 for the first 
nine months in 1995 from $656,000 for the same period a year ago.  The level 
of income taxes has increased as a result of the Company's increased earnings.




<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION CONT.


     Income taxes were $336,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 
compared to $210,000 in 1994.

DEPOSITS AND BORROWED FUNDS

     Deposits as of September 30, 1995 increased by 1.2% or $1,792,000 from 
September 30, 1994.  Demand deposits decreased by .01% or $10,000, NOW 
deposits decreased by 8.4% or $2,457,000, savings deposits decreased by 20.8% 
or $8,867,000, money market deposits decreased by 23.0% or $2,139,000 and 
certificates of deposit increased by 27.8% or $15,265,000.  

     Deposits were supplemented by borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank 
and repurchase agreements.  Total borrowed funds decreased by 1.9% or $688,000 
from the same period a year ago. 

STOCKHOLDERS' INVESTMENT AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Stockholders' investment as of September 30, 1995 was $18,797,000 
compared to $16,421,000 for the same period in 1994.  The reason for this 
increase was the strong earnings performance in the year 1994 and the first 
nine months of 1995.

     During 1994, the Company declared cash dividends of 13 cents per share 
for the first quarter and 14 cents per share for the last three quarters.  
Dividends remained at 14 cents per share for the first quarter in 1995 and 
then were increased by one cent in the second and third quarters to the 
current level of 15 cents per share.

     Leverage capital ratios were 9.08% and 8.08%, respectively, at September 
30, 1995 and September 30, 1994.  The Bank had a tier one risk-based capital 
ratio of 13.33% and tier two risk-based capital ratio of 14.58% at September 
30, 1995, compared to 11.78% and 13.03%, respectively, at September 30, 1994.  
These were comfortably above the standards to be rated "well-capitalized" by 
the regulatory authorities.  Primary capital at September 30, 1995 was 10.02% 
versus 9.20% at September 30, 1994, both well above the 6.00% level mandated 
by the regulatory authorities.

LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT

     As of September 30, 1995 the Bank had primary sources of liquidity of 
$24,184,000, or 11.8% of its assets.  It is Management's opinion that this is 
adequate.  In its Asset/Liability policy, the Bank has adopted guidelines for 
liquidity.

     We are not aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory 
authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have a material 
effect on the Corporation's liquidity, capital resources or results of 
operations.

LOAN POLICIES

     Real estate values:

            A.  Residential properties  We loan up to 80% of the appraised 
            value of the property and do no further appraisals as long as the
            payment history remains satisfactory.  If a loan becomes 
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION CONT.


            delinquent, a review might be done of the loan.


            When a loan becomes 90 or more days past due, an in-depth review 
            is made of the loan and a determination made as to whether or not
            a reappraisal is required.

            B.  Land only properties  We do not have many of these but we do 
            loan up to 65% of the appraised value of the property.  They are 
            handled the same way as above from booking date on.

            C.  Commercial properties  We loan up to 70% of the appraised 
            value, and once the loan is closed, the loan policy requires the
            following:

              Loan paying satisfactorily, a re-appraisal is required every 
              five years.

              Loans running 90 or more days past due steadily or graded OAEM
              are appraised every 18 months.

              Loans graded substandard or lower (including O.R.E.O. 
              properties) are appraised as necessitated, and at a minimum,
              annually.

              Note:  A certified or licensed appraiser is used for all
              appraisals.


     At September 30, 1995 and 1994, loans on a non-accrual status totaled 
$1,231,000 and $2,056,000, respectively.  In addition to loans on a non-
accrual status at September 30, 1995 and 1994, loans past due greater than 90 
days totaled $117,000 and $267,000 respectively.  The Company continues to 
accrue interest on these loans because it believes collection of the interest 
is reasonably assured.

INVESTMENTS

     In the first quarter of 1994, the Company adopted FAS 115, "Accounting 
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".  FAS 115 requires that 
all debt securities be classified into one of three categories:  trading 
securities, securities available for sale and securities held to maturity.  As 
of September 30, 1995 stockholders' equity was increased by $35,000 due to a 
net unrealized gain in the available-for-sale portfolio.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     No material off-balance sheet risk exists that requires a separate 
liability presentation.

SALE OF LOANS

     No recourse obligations have been incurred in connection with the sale of 
loans.


<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION CONT.


RISK ELEMENTS

     Any loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, 
substandard, or special mention that have not been disclosed under Item III of 
Industry Guide 3 do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties which 
Management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, 
liquidity or capital resources.

     There are no known potential problem loans which are not now disclosed 
pursuant to Item III. C. 1. of Industry Guide 3.  Item III. C. 2. is not 
applicable.

REGULATORY MATTERS

     Procedures for monitoring Bank Loan Administration:

     A.     Loan reviews are done on a regular basis.

     B.     An action plan is prepared quarterly on all criticized loans.

     C.     Delinquent loans are reviewed monthly by the Problem Asset 
            Committee.

     D.     A tickler system is utilized to insure timely receipt of current 
            information (such as financial statements, appraisals and/or 
            credit memos to the credit file).

            Note:  Most of the above applies only to commercial loans, but 
            retail loans are reviewed periodically, usually around a 
            delinquency.

     Procedures for monitoring Bank Other Real Estate Owned:

            The O.R.E.O. portfolio is handled by the Bank's Collections 
            Officer, with backup by the Senior Loan Officer.  Most properties
            are listed with real estate brokers for sale.  All properties are
            appraised periodically for market value, and provision is made to
            the allowance for O.R.E.O. losses if the estimated market value
            after selling costs is lower than the carrying value of the 
            property.

OTHER

     The quarterly financial statements in the opinion of Management fairly 
represent all adjustments made to reflect the current financial condition of 
the Bank for this interim period just ended.  All such adjustments were of a 
normal recurring nature.
