To Our Woodward Shareholders:
The fourth quarter of 1995 provided strong results in the equity and
bond markets with total returns of 6 percent for the Standard and Poor's (S&P)
and 4.3 percent for the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index. These results capped an
exceptional year which provided total returns of 37.5 percent for the S&P,
31.7 percent for the Russell 2500 (a proxy for smaller companies) and 18.5
percent for the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index. Foreign markets, as measured by
the EAFE Index, provided good absolute returns of 11.2 percent, but failed to
keep up with the exceptional U.S. market. In fact, S&P 500 results were the
third highest since 1948 and the highest since 1958; the overall bond results
were also the third highest, in this case since the mid 1970s.
The Woodward money market funds had an excellent year with all funds
finishing in the top quartile of their respective IBC/Donoghue's peer groups.
The funds maintained their exceptional credit quality throughout the year and
profited from a strategy of maintaining slightly longer-weighted average
maturities as compared to their peer groups.
The Woodward bond funds again exceeded their respective benchmarks in
the fourth quarter, providing exceptional 1995 results. The Bond Fund
generated a total return of 23.8 percent, while the Intermediate Bond Fund
provided results of 19.5 percent. The two funds ranked at the top of their
respective fund categories for the year. The Short Bond Fund provided a total
return of 10.1 percent, modestly below its benchmark but well above cash
alternatives.
The Woodward equity funds had a solid fourth quarter with a number of
the funds exceeding their peer groups. Generally, the results for the Woodward
equity funds for the year provided very high absolute results; they moderately
lagged peer managers and came up somewhat short of the broader indices. The
Woodward Growth/Value, Capital Growth and International Equity funds had good
fourth quarters. This helped the Growth/Value and Capital Growth Funds close
the gap with their peers for the year, while the International Equity Fund
provided good comparative returns on an annual basis. The Opportunity and
Intrinsic Value Funds lagged their respective benchmarks for the quarter and
the year. We look to 1996 to improve relative equity performance which,
coupled with our strong bond results, should provide our clients continued
success with their investments.
During the year, NBD Bancorp, Inc. merged with First Chicago
Corporation. We were pleased that the investment management effort of the
joint organization has been identified as a primary business of the Bank and
that substantial resources have been allocated to the business. We look
forward to melding the two organization's considerable strengths and providing
our clients with a measurably enhanced research and fund management group.
Thank you for your continued support and we hope you find this report
useful and informative.
Sincerely,
/s/ Earl I. Heenan, Jr.

The Money Market Funds commenced operations on January 4, 1988, except
for the Michigan Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund and the Treasury Money Market
Fund, which commenced operations on January 23, 1991 and January 1, 1993,
respectively.
(2) Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed
by the Money Market Funds in preparation of the financial statements. The
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for
investment companies. Following generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Investments
Pursuant to Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Money
Market Funds utilize the amortized cost method to determine the carrying value
of investment securities. Under this method, investment securities are valued
for both financial reporting and federal tax purposes at amortized cost and
any discount or premium is amortized from the date of acquisition to maturity.
The use of this method results in a carrying value which approximates market
value. Market value is determined based upon quoted market prices or dealer
quotes.
Investment security purchases and sales are accounted for on the trade
date.
Woodward invests in securities subject to repurchase agreements. Such
transactions are entered into only with institutions included on the Federal
Reserve System's list of institutions with whom the Federal Reserve open
market desk will do business. NBD Bank (NBD), acting under the supervision of
the Board of Trustees, has established the following additional policies and
procedures relating to Woodward's investments in securities subject to
repurchase agreements: 1) the value of the underlying collateral is required
to equal or exceed 102% of the funds advanced under the repurchase agreement
including accrued interest; 2) collateral is marked to market daily by NBD to
assure its value remains at least equal to 102% of the repurchase agreement
amount; and 3) funds are not disbursed by Woodward or its agent unless
collateral is presented or acknowledged by the collateral custodian.
The Tax-Exempt and Michigan Tax-Exempt Funds invest in a majority of
instruments whose stated maturity is greater than one year, but whose rate of
interest is readjusted no less frequently than annually, or which possess
demand features and may therefore be deemed to have a maturity equal to the
period remaining until the next interest adjustment date or the demand date,
whichever is longer.
Investment Income
Interest income is recorded daily on the accrual basis adjusted for
amortization of premium and accretion of discount. Premiums and discounts are
amortized/accreted as required by the Internal Revenue Code.
Federal Income Taxes
It is Woodward's policy to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M
of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute net investment income and realized gains to its
shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required in the
accompanying Financial Statements.
Shareholder Dividends
On each business day except those holidays the New York Stock Exchange
(Exchange), NBD or its bank affiliates observe, net investment income is
declared as a dividend, at the close of the Exchange, to shareholders of
record at such close. Such dividends are paid monthly.
Deferred Organization Costs
Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the
five year period beginning with the commencement of operations of each series.
Expenses
Expenses are charged daily as a percentage of the respective Fund's net
assets. Woodward monitors the rate at which expenses are charged to ensure
that a proper amount of expense is charged to income each year. This
percentage is subject to revision if there is a change in the estimate of the
future net assets of the funds or a change in expectations as to the level of
actual expenses.
(3) Transactions with Affiliates
First of Michigan Corporation (FoM) and Essex National Securities, Inc.
(Essex) act as sponsors and co-distributors of Woodward's shares. Pursuant to
their Distribution Agreement with Woodward, FoM is entitled to receive a fee
at the annual rate of .025% of the aggregate average net assets invested in
the Money Market Funds' first $400 million and .005% of such assets in excess
of $400 million. Fees of FoM under the Distribution Agreement are allocated
among the Funds based on the relative net asset values. Essex is entitled to
receive a fee at the annual rate of .10% of the aggregate average net assets
of Woodward's investment portfolios, attributable to investments by clients of
Essex.
NBD is the investment advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. For
its advisory services to Woodward, NBD is entitled to a fee, computed daily
and payable monthly. Under the Advisory Agreement, NBD also provides Woodward
with certain administrative services, such as maintaining Woodward's general
ledger and assisting in the preparation of various regulatory reports. NBD
receives no additional compensation for such services.
A reorganization of Woodward and The Prairie Funds is being considered
by the Board of Trustees of both funds. In connection with the proposed
reorganization, the Board of Trustees of Woodward and the Board of Trustees of
Prairie must approve certain reorganization agreements. The transaction is
intended to be effected as a tax-free reorganization under the Internal
Revenue Code, so that none of the Funds' shareholders will recognize taxable
gains or losses as a result of the reorganization. A proxy
statement/prospectus describing the reorganization and the reasons therefore
will be sent to shareholders.
NBD, FoM, and Essex have agreed that they may waive their fees in whole
or in part; and, if in part, may specify the particular fund to which such
waiver relates as may be required to satisfy any expense limitation imposed by
state securities laws or other applicable laws. At present, no restrictive
expense limitation is imposed on Woodward. Restrictive limitations could be
imposed as a result of changes in current state laws and regulations in those
states where Woodward has qualified its shares, or by a decision of the
Trustees to qualify the shares in other states having restrictive expense
limitations. For the year ended December 31, 1995, NBD waived $61,221 of the
advisory fee for the Michigan Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund.
NBD is also compensated for its services as Woodward's Custodian,
Transfer Agent and Dividend Disbursing Agent, and is reimbursed for certain
out of pocket expenses incurred on behalf of Woodward.
On March 10, 1994, Woodward adopted The Woodward Funds Deferred
Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), an unfunded, nonqualified deferred
compensation plan. The Plan allows an individual Trustee to elect to defer
receipt of all or a percentage of fees which otherwise would be payable for
services performed.
See Note 5 for a summary of fee rates and expenses pursuant to these
agreements.

(6) Portfolio Composition
Although the Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund has a diversified investment
portfolio, the Fund has investments in excess of 10% of its total investments
in the states of Michigan and Texas. The Michigan Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund
does not have a diversified portfolio since 99% of its investments are within
the state of Michigan. Such concentrations within particular states may subject
the funds more significantly to economic changes occurring within those states.

net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended or
from inception (as indicated in Note 1) through December 31, 1995. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included physical counts and confirmation of
securities owned as of December 31, 1995, by inspection and correspondence with
custodians, banks and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of each of the respective funds constituting the Money Market Funds of
The Woodward Funds as of December 31, 1995, the results of their operations for
the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years
in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five
years in the period then ended or from inception (as indicated in Note 1)
through December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
