               NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


1. In the opinion of management of the Registrant, the accompanying
   consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only
   of normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the consolidated
   financial position of the Registrant as of September 30, 1997 and December
   31, 1996, the results of operations and cash flows for the nine month
   periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, and the change in shareholders'
   equity for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997.

2. Because the results of the operations are so closely related to and
   responsive to changes in economic conditions, the results for any interim
   period are not necessarily indicative of the results than can be expected
   for future periods.

3. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read
   in conjunction with the notes to consolidated financial statements contained
   in the 1996 Annual Report.

4. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on
   an evaluation of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience, current
   economic conditions and other pertinent factors.  Non-performing loans,
   which includes loans contractually past due ninety days or more; loans
   accounted for on a non-accrual basis and loans whose terms have been
   renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal
   because of deterioration in the financial position of the borrower; amounted
   to $162,000 at September 30, 1997 and 172,000 at December 31, 1996,
   summarized as follows:



                                               Sept. 30,  December 31,

     90 days or more past due...............     90,000       70,000
     Renegotiated...........................     52,000       54,000

                                               ========     ========


   The renegotiated loans are all in compliance with the modified terms for
   both periods. As of September 30, 1997 in accordance with SFAS No. 114, as
   amended (Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a loan), and as the
   registrant has defined in the 1996 Annual Report, there were no loans
   considered impaired.

5. Following is a summary of activity in the allowance for loan losses for the
   nine months ended September 30;

                ITEM 2   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS_OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results
of operations provides additional information to assess the consolidated
financial statements of the Registrant and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The
discussion should be read in conjunction with those statements.
     The Company is not aware of any market or institutional trends, events, or
circumstances that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect
on liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations except as discussed
herein. Also, the Company is not aware of any current recommendations by
regulatory authorities which will have such effect if implemented.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Net interest income increased 6.56% when compared to the same period in
1996. The increase is a result of growth in loan outstandings.  At September
30, 1997, loan outstandings increased 15.81% over September 30, 1996.  Real
estate mortgage lending continues to show strong growth.  Net interest margin
of 5.06% for the first nine months of 1997 compares favorably to 4.92% for the
same period in 1996.
     The Bank accessed long term FHLB funding during this period to match
assets of like term.
     Allowance for Loan Loss remains strong.  At September 30, 1997 the
allowance was equal to 1.81% of total loans outstanding, down slightly from
2.03% on September 30, 1996 and 1.97% on December 31, 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net earnings for the third quarter ended September 30, 1997 was $318,000,
or $1.07 per share compared to earnings of $313,000, or $1.05 per share for the
same period in 1996. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, net earnings
were $910,000 or $3.06 per share compared to $858,000, or $2.88 per share for
the same period in 1996. Cost control, increased margin, strong loan demand and
excellent credit quality contributed to the 6.06% year to date improvement in 
earnings.
     The increase in margin resulted in a $162,000 increase in net interest
income for the first nine months of 1997 compared to the same period in 1996.
     A decrease in non interest income has been offset with a comparable
reduction in non interest expense.

LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT

     The primary objective of asset/liability management is to assure adequate
liquidity and net interest income by maintaining appropriate maturities and
balances between interest sensitive earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities. Liquidity management insures sufficient funds are maintained to
meet the cash withdrawal requirements of depositors and the credit demands of
borrowers.
     Sources of liquidity include: federal funds sold, investment security
maturities, and pay downs. The Bank maintained a net average balance of
$1,510,000 in Federal Funds sold during the first nine months of 1997.  The
Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank system for several reasons:
access to an alternate funding source, lower cost for credit services, and an
alternate tool to manage interest rate risk.  In March and May of 1997, the
Bank used this source of funding to directly offset loans of like terms and
conditions.
     Other sources of liquidity include: internally generated cash flow,
repayments and maturities of loans, borrowing, and growth in core deposits.
     At September 30, 1997, the securities available for sale were valued at
$9,268,000.
     Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to maximize net interest
margins through periods of changing interest rates. The Bank develops
strategies to assure that desired levels of interest sensitive assets and
interest bearing liabilities mature or reprice within selected time frames.
Strategies include the use of variable rate loan products as well as managing
deposit accounts and maturities in the investment portfolio. The following
chart, using recommended regulatory standards, reflects "the rate sensitive
position" or the difference between loans and investments, and liabilities that
mature or reprice within the next year and beyond. The financial industry has
generally referred to this difference as "GAP" and its handling as "GAP
Management".  At September 30, 1997, the percentage of rate sensitive assets to
rate sensitive liabilities within the one-year time horizon was 101%.
     The chart shows the Bank's GAP position as of September 30, 1997. The Bank
has an asset sensitive position within one year of $378,000, which indicates
higher net interest income may be earned if rates increase during the period. A
new program was implemented which measured the rate sensitivity of our non
maturity deposits. This refines the GAP model to give a better indication of
our rate sensitivity. Due to some of the limitations of GAP analysis, price
modeling is also used to enhance measurement and control.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The adequacy of the Corporation's capital is reviewed regularly to ensure
that sufficient capital is available to meet current and future funding needs
and comply with regulatory requirements.
     Shareholders' equity increased $612,000 or 6.53% to $9,977,000 at
September 30, 1997, which represents 12.40% of total assets. These figures do
not include the net unrealized gain on available for sale securities.  At
December 31, 1996, the similar ratio of shareholders' equity to total assets
was 11.87%. These measurements indicate the Corporation has a strong capital
position.
     The "risk-based" capital to asset ratio, as established by the regulatory
authorities, was 20.40% as of September 30, 1997 compared to 19.50% at December
31, 1996 as shown below:



                          Actual           Required           Excess

September 30, 1997  $10,541,000  20.40  $4,134,000  8.00  $6,407,000 12.40


     Bank management does not perceive that future rate changes or inflation
will have a material impact on capital adequacy.
     It is the opinion of Management that capital and shareholders' equity is
and will remain adequate for 1997.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

     The provision for Federal income taxes for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 totaled $361,000 and $339,000 respectively.  The
increase in taxes is reflective of the increase in taxable income for those
periods.

OTHER MATTERS

     SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishment of Liabilities," was issued by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board in 1996. It revises the accounting for transfers of financial
assets, such as loans and securities, and for distinguishing between sales and
secured borrowings. It is effective for some transactions in 1997 and others in
1998. The anticipated effect on the consolidated financial statements has yet
to be determined.
     The Corporation has created a project task force to examine year 2000 
issues and used the steps outlined in the Federal Financial Institutions 
Examination Council's interagency statement entitled, "Year 2000 Project 
Management Awareness" as a guideline to insure that all areas affected by this 
matter are examined and in compliance.

therefore, the new calculation methods will not affect future basic earnings
per share and diluted earnings per share.

shareholders of record as of November 3, 1997.
