                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

      For the six and three month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002

1.    Basis of Presentation

      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six
      and three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 were prepared in
      accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
      S-X and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for
      a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and
      cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
      the United States of America. Accordingly, these financial statements
      should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
      thereto of Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. included in the Annual Report on
      Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2003.

      In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
      recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the
      unaudited financial statements have been included. The results of
      operations for the six-month period ended September 30, 2003 are not
      necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire
      fiscal year.

      Critical Accounting Policy - The Company's critical accounting policy
      relates to the allowance for losses on loans. The Company has established
      a systematic method of periodically reviewing the credit quality of the
      loan portfolio in order to establish a sufficient allowance for losses on
      loans. The allowance for losses on loans is based on management's current
      judgments about the credit quality of individual loans and segments of the
      loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is established through a
      provision, and considers all known internal and external factors that
      affect loan collectability as of the reporting date. Such evaluation,
      which included a review of all loans on which full collectability may not
      be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net
      realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic
      conditions, historical loan loss experience, management's knowledge of
      inherent risks in the portfolio that are probable and reasonably estimable
      and other factors that warrant recognition in providing an appropriate
      loan loss allowance.

      Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
      with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
      America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
      the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
      contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
      and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
      period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.    Principles of Consolidation

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Wayne Savings
      Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and the Company's wholly-owned
      subsidiary, Wayne Savings Community Bank ("Wayne Savings" or the "Bank").
      At September 30, 2003, Village Savings Bank, F.S.B. was merged with and
      into Wayne Savings Community Bank and will be operated as a branch. Prior
      to this date, Village Bank was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wayne Savings
      Community Bank. Wayne Savings has ten banking locations in Wayne, Holmes,
      Ashland, Medina and Stark counties. All significant intercompany
      transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.

      For the six and three month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002

3.    Earnings Per Share

      Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the
      weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period,
      less shares in the Company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) that are
      unallocated and not committed to be released. Diluted earnings per common
      share include the dilutive effect of all additional potential common
      shares issuable under the Company's stock option plan. Basic and diluted
      earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2002 has been
      restated to give effect to 1.5109 share exchange ratio in the Company's
      January 2003 conversion offering. The computations are as follows:

</TABLE>

      Options to purchase 204,081 shares of common stock at a weighted average
      exercise price $13.95 were outstanding at September 30, 2003 but were
      excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the
      exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common
      shares. At September 30, 2002 all outstanding options were included in the
      diluted earnings per share calculation.

4.    Stock Option Plan

      The Company has a 1993 incentive Stock Option Plan that provided for the
      issuance of 196,390 adjusted shares of authorized, but unissued shares of
      common stock with 10,123 options outstanding at September 30, 2003. In
      fiscal 2004, the Company adopted a new Stock Option Plan that provided for
      the issuance of 142,857 incentive options and 62,224 non-incentive options
      of authorized, but unissued common stock. As of September 30, 2003, all
      options under the 2004 Plan have been granted and expire in fiscal 2014.

      The Company accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with SFAS
      No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which provides a fair
      value-based method for valuing stock-based compensation that entities may
      use, which measures compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair
      value of the award. Compensation is then recognized over the service
      period, which is usually the vesting period. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123
      permits entities to continue to account for stock options and similar
      equity instruments under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No.
      25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Entities that continue to
      account for stock options using APB Opinion No. 25 are required to make
      pro forma disclosures of net earnings and earnings per share, as if the
      fair value-based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been
      applied. Management has determined that the Company will continue to
      account for stock based compensation to APB Opinion No. 25.

      There were 204,081 options granted during the three months ended September
      30, 2003 and none granted for the three or six months periods ended
      September 30, 2002.

4.    Stock Option Plan (continued)

      At September 30, 2003, 10,123 of the stock options granted were subject to
      exercise at the discretion of the grantees and expire in fiscal 2013 while
      the remaining 204,081 vest at a rate of 20% annually and will expire in
      fiscal 2014.

      A summary of the status of the Company's stock option plans as of and for
      the periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, and the six months ended
      September  30,  2003 is presented below:

5.    Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

      In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 147, "Accounting
      for Certain Financial Institutions: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 72
      and 144 and FASB Interpretation No. 9," which removes acquisitions of
      financial institutions from the scope of SFAS No. 72, "Accounting for
      Certain Acquisitions of Banking and Thrift Institutions," except for
      transactions between mutual enterprises. Accordingly, the excess of the
      fair value of liabilities assumed over the fair value of tangible and
      intangible assets acquired in a business combination should be recognized
      and accounted for as goodwill in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business
      Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."

      SFAS No. 147 also requires that the acquisition of a less-than-whole
      financial institution, such as a branch, be accounted for as a business
      combination if the transferred assets and activities constitute a
      business. Otherwise, the acquisition should be accounted for as the
      acquisition of net assets.

      For the six and three month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002

5.    Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

      SFAS No. 147 also amends the scope of SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
      Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," to include long-term
      customer relationship assets of financial institutions (including mutual
      enterprises) such as depositor and borrower-relationship intangible assets
      and credit cardholder intangible assets.

      The provisions of SFAS No. 147 related to unidentifiable intangible assets
      and the acquisition of a less-than-whole financial institution are
      effective for acquisitions for which the date of acquisition is on or
      after October 1, 2002. The provisions related to impairment of long-term
      customer relationship assets are effective October 1, 2002. Transition
      provisions for previously recognized unidentifiable intangible assets are
      effective on October 1, 2002, with earlier application permitted.

      SFAS No. 147 was adopted on April 1, 2003, without material effect on the
      Company's financial condition or results of operations.

      In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
      Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure." SFAS No. 148 amends
      SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide
      alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value
      based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In
      addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123
      to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial
      statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee
      compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS
      No. 148 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2002.
      The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports
      containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after
      December 15, 2002. SFAS No. 148 was adopted on April 1, 2003, without
      material effects on the Company's financial position or results of
      operation.

      In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"),
      "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees,
      Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45 requires
      a guarantor entity, at the inception of a guarantee covered by the
      measurement provisions of the interpretation, to record a liability for
      the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The
      Company has financial letters of credit which require the Company to make
      payment if the customer's financial condition deteriorates, as defined in
      the agreements. FIN 45 requires Wayne to record a liability generally
      equal to fees received for these letters of credit when guaranteeing
      obligations. FIN 45 applies prospectively to guarantees Wayne issues or
      modifies subsequent to December 31, 2002. Wayne had $97,000 in letters of
      credit outstanding at September 30, 2003.

      In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, "Consolidation of Variable
      Interest Entities." FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be
      consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the
      risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to
      receive a majority of the entity's residual returns, or both. FIN 46 also
      requires disclosures about variable interest entities that a company is
      not required to consolidate, but in which it has a significant variable
      interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to
      variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The
      consolidation requirements apply to existing entities in the first fiscal
      year or interim period beginning after September 15, 2003. Certain of the
      disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after
      January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was
      established. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of FIN 46
      effective January 31, 2003, without material effect on its financial
      statements.

6.    Forward-looking Statements

      This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements.
      For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements
      of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without
      limiting the foregoing, the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans",
      "expects" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
      statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause the
      Company's actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by
      such forward-looking statements. These important factors include, without
      limitation, the Bank's continued ability to originate quality loans,
      fluctuation of interest rates, real estate market conditions in the Bank's
      lending areas, general and local economic conditions, the continued
      ability of the Bank to attract and retain deposits, new accounting
      pronouncements and changing regulatory requirements.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from March 31, 2003 to September 30,
2003

At September 30, 2003, we had total assets of $372.5 million, a decrease of $6.5
million, or 1.7%, from March 31, 2003 levels.

Liquid assets consisting of cash, interest-bearing deposits and investment
securities decreased by $5.7 million, or 10.6%, to $47.7 million at September
30, 2003. Mortgage-backed securities increased by $14.3 million, or 18.8%, to
$90.3 million as management redeployed excess liquid assets into higher-yielding
assets consisting of short term adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities and
collateralized mortgage obligations with low extension risks. Management's
intention is to maintain a short term investment duration until rates rise from
near historic low levels. The increase in mortgage-backed securities was also
funded by loan repayments and sales exceeding loan originations which reduced
the loan portfolio by $15.6 million, or 6.8%, to $212.7 million, which generally
resulted from higher loan prepayments as borrowers chose to refinance their
loans in the declining interest rate environment.

Nonperforming and impaired loans of $1.7 million consisted of $1.0 million of
residential mortgage loans, coupled with a $668,000 commercial business and real
estate loan relationship which became delinquent and was designated as impaired
during fiscal year 2002. The Company entered into a workout agreement in July
2003 with the borrower which called for the sale and disposal of the underlying
collateral. The first sale under the workout agreement closed in August and
Wayne Savings received payment of $1.1 million. The second sale occurred in
October and Wayne is anticipating net proceeds of $140,000. The final sale is
expected to be initiated during the quarter ending December 2003. No allocation
to the allowance has been made for the remainder of these loans as management
believes the value of the collateral exceeds the related loan balance.

Deposits at September 30, 2003, totaled $295.6 million, a decrease of $5.3
million from $300.9 million at March 31, 2003. Management attributes the decline
in deposits mainly to customers seeking to find alternative investment
opportunities due to the low rate environment. The Bank's deposit pricing is
very competitive in all market areas.

Stockholders' equity decreased by $807,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 2003, due to the purchase of common stock of $1.1 million for the
management recognition plan, dividends paid totaling $881,000 and an after-tax
increase of $248,000 in other comprehensive loss, partially offset by $1.3
million in net earnings for the six months ended September 30, 2003.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Month Periods Ended September 30,
2003 and 2002

General

Net earnings totaled $1.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2003,
an increase of $183,000 or 15.8%, over $1.2 million of net earnings for the six
months ended September 30, 2002. The growth in net earnings was primarily
attributable to an increase in net interest income of $368,000, or 7.2%, and an
increase in other income of $284,000, or 40.3%, which were partially offset by a
$435,000, or 10.8%, increase in general, administrative and other expense and a
$9,000, or 1.5%, increase in federal income tax expense.

Interest Income

Interest income for the six months ended September 30, 2003, decreased $702,000,
or 7.1%, to $9.2 million. This decrease was a result of a 106 basis point
reduction in the yield on interest earning assets to 5.20%, partially offset by
an increase in the weighted average balance of $37.4 million, or 11.8%, to
$354.5 million for the period ended September 30, 2003.

                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Month Periods Ended September 30,
2003 and 2002 (continued)

Interest Income (continued)

Interest income on loans declined $1.5 million, or 17.3%, for the six months
ended September 30, 2003, due primarily to a decrease in the weighted average
balance of loans outstanding of $27.7 million, or 11.2%, compared to the 2002
period, coupled with a 49 basis-point decrease in the weighted average yield on
loans to 6.58% for the 2003 period.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased $714,000 during the six
months ended September 30, 2003, due primarily to a $63.6 million, or 309.3%,
increase in the weighted average balance outstanding from the comparable 2002
period, which was partially offset by a decrease in the average yield of 128
basis points to 2.66%.

Interest income on investments increased by $248,000, or 50.7%, reflecting an
increase in the weighted average balance of $9.7 million, or 46.1%, coupled with
an increase in the weighted average rate of 15 basis-points to 4.80% from 4.65%
during the comparable 2002 period.

Interest income on interest-bearing deposits and other decreased by $153,000, or
54.1%, reflecting a decrease in the weighted average balance of $8.2 million, or
29.3%, coupled with a decrease in the weighted average rate of 71 basis-points
to 1.31% from 2.02% during the comparable 2002 period.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 2003 totaled $3.7
million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 22.3%, from interest expense of $4.8
million for the six months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease resulted from
an 83 basis point decrease in the average cost of funds to 2.33% for the 2003
period, offset by an increase in the average balance of deposits and borrowings
outstanding of $15.8 million, or 5.2%, to $319.7 million for the period ended
September 30, 2003.

Interest expense on deposits totaled $3.1 million for the six months ended
September 30, 2003, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 33.5%, from the six months
ended September 30, 2002, as a result of a 98 basis point decrease in the
average cost of deposits to 2.14% for the 2003 period coupled with a decrease in
the average balance outstanding of $9.2 million, or 3.1%, to $289.8 million for
the 2003 period.

Interest expense on borrowings totaled $625,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 2003, an increase of $494,000 from the 2002 period, primarily due
to an increase in the average balance of borrowings of $25.0 million to an
average balance of $30.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2003
from $5.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002, which was
partially offset with a decrease in the average cost of borrowings to 4.17% from
the average cost of 5.24% for the 2002 period. The Company borrowed the
additional funds in order to purchase corporate and mortgage-backed securities
in order to enhance earnings and future cash flows.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income totaled $5.5 million for the six months ended September 30,
2003, an increase of $368,000, or 7.2%, from the six month period ended
September 30, 2002. The average interest rate spread decreased to 2.87% for the
six months ended September 30, 2003 from 3.10% for the six months ended
September 30, 2002. The net interest margin decreased to 3.10% for the six
months ended September 30, 2003 from 3.23% for the six months ended September
30, 2002.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Month Periods Ended September 30,
2003 and 2002 (continued)

Provision for Losses on Loans

The Company recorded provisions for losses on loans totaling $63,000 and $38,000
for the six month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. To
the best of management's knowledge, all known and inherent losses that are
probable and which can be reasonably estimated have been recorded as of
September 30, 2003 and 2002.

Other Income

Other income, consisting primarily of an increase in cash surrender value of
life insurance, gains on sale of loans, service fees, and charges on deposit
accounts, increased by $284,000 or 40.3%, to $989,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 2003, from $705,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2002.
The increase resulted primarily from $134,000 in the increase in cash surrender
value of life insurance due to the purchase of life insurance in October 2002.
Additionally, service fees, charges and other operating income which increased
by $105,000, or 15.2%, to $794,000, for the six months ended September 30, 2003,
was due primarily to an increase in non-sufficient fund fees on transaction
accounts, coupled with increased income related to credit card merchants and
debit card income. Gain on sale of loans increased $45,000 in 2003 as compared
to the six months ended September 30, 2002, mainly due to management's decision
to sell the majority of the lower rate thirty year residential mortgage loans to
the secondary market.

General, Administrative, and Other Expense

General, administrative and other expense increased by $435,000, or 10.7%, to
$4.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the six
months ended September 30, 2002. The increase resulted primarily from a
$314,000, or 13.7%, increase in employee compensation and benefits and a
$128,000, or 15.3%, , increase in other operating expense. The increase in
employee compensation and benefits was primarily attributable to normal merit
increases, an increase in employee benefit plan costs and additional staff
needed for operating a fully converted, publicly traded stock company.
Similarly, the increase in other operating expense was primarily attributable to
increased costs related to routine and ongoing compliance matters required of a
public company in addition to higher merchant and bank service charge expenses.

Federal Income Taxes

The provision for federal income taxes was $595,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 2003, an increase of $9,000, or 1.5%, compared to the same period
in 2002. The increase resulted primarily from a $192,000, or 11.0%, increase in
pretax earnings, which was mitigated by $134,000 of tax-exempt income related to
the cash surrender value of life insurance. The effective tax rate for the three
months ended September 30, 2003, was 30.7% as compared to 33.5% for the same
period in 2002. The decrease in the effective tax rate period to period is
mainly due to the advantages related to the aforementioned tax-exempt income.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ended September 30,
2003 and 2002

General

Net earnings totaled $613,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003, an
increase of $6,000, or 1.0%, over the $607,000 of net earnings for the three
months ended September 30, 2002. The growth in net earnings was primarily
attributable to an increase in net interest income of $128,000, or 5.0%, and an
increase in other income of $118,000, or 32.7%, which were partially offset by a
$262,000, or 13.0%, increase in general, administrative and other expense and a
$32,000, or 10.6% decrease in federal income tax expense.

                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ended September 30,
2003 and 2002 (continued)

Interest Income

Interest income decreased $376,000, or 7.7%, for the three months ended
September 30, 2003, to $4.5 million. This decline was mainly due to a 109 basis
point reduction in the average yield on interest earning assets to 5.01% from
6.10% for the period ending September 30, 2002. The yield reduction was
partially offset with an increase in the weighted-average balance of $39.4
million, or 12.3%, to a balance of $359.2 million at September 30, 2003.

Interest income on loans declined $804,000, or 18.6%, for the three months ended
September 30, 2003, due primarily to a decrease in the weighted average balance
of loans outstanding of $31.1 million, or 12.6%, compared to the 2002 period,
coupled with a 48 basis-point decrease in the weighted average yield on loans to
6.53% for the 2003 period.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased $368,000 during the
three months ended September 30, 2003, due primarily to a $64.9 million increase
in the weighted average balance outstanding from the comparable 2002 period.
This significant increase is the result of management's strategy to invest in
higher yielding short term mortgage-backed securities as a defensive measure
during the current historic low interest rate environment. The increase in the
weighted-average balance was partially offset by a decrease in the average yield
of 66 basis points to 2.51% for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The
yield on mortgage-backed securities was adversely affected by the record levels
of repayments during the period.

Interest income on investments increased by $151,000, or 64.5%, reflecting an
increase to a weighted average balance of $14.3 million to $34.6 million from
$20.4 million during the comparable 2002 period, partially offset with a
decrease in the average yield of 16 basis points to 4.44%.

Interest income on interest-bearing deposits declined $91,000, or 63.6%, for the
three months ended September 30, 2003, due primarily to a decrease in the
average yield of 93 basis points to an average yield of .97% from an average
yield of 1.90% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002, coupled with a decrease
in the weighted average balance of $8.6 million, or 28.7%, compared to the 2002
period of $30.1 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2003 totaled $1.8
million, a decrease of $504,000, or 21.9%, from interest expense of $2.3 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease resulted from a 76
basis point decrease in the average cost of funds to 2.26% for the 2003 period,
which was offset with an increase in the average balance of deposits and
borrowings outstanding of $13.2 million, or 4.3%, to $317.7 million for the
period ended September 30, 2003.

Interest expense on deposits totaled $1.5 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2003, a decrease of $743,000, or 33.3%, from the three months
ended September 30, 2002, as a result of a 91 basis point decrease in the
average cost of deposits to 2.07% for the 2003 period and a decrease in the
average balance outstanding of $11.8 million, or 3.9%, to $287.7 million for the
2003 period.

Interest expense on borrowings totaled $305,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2003, an increase of $239,000 from the 2002 period, primarily due
to an increase in the average balance of borrowings of $25.0 million to an
average balance of $30.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003,
which was partially offset with a decrease in the average cost of borrowings to
4.07% from the average cost of 5.28% for the 2002 period.

for the three month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. To
the best of management's knowledge, all known and inherent losses that are
probable and which can be reasonably estimated have been recorded as of
September 30, 2003 and 2002.

Other Income

Other income, consisting primarily of an increase in cash surrender value of
life insurance, gains on sale of loans, service fees, and charges on deposit
accounts, increased by $118,000 or 32.7%, to $479,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2003, from $361,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002.
The increase resulted primarily from $67,000 in the increase in cash surrender
value of life insurance due to the purchase of life insurance in October 2002.
Gain on sale of loans accounted for an additional $24,000 increase over the
three months ended September 30, 2002, mainly due to management's decision to
sell the majority of the lower rate thirty year residential mortgage loans to
the secondary market. Additionally, service fees, charges and other operating
income which increased by $27,000, or 7.5%, to $388,000, for the three months
ended September 30, 2003, was due primarily to increased income related to
credit card merchants and debit cards.

General, Administrative, and Other Expense

General, administrative and other expense increased by $262,000, or 13.0%, to
$2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the three

$194,000, or 17.0%, increase in employee compensation and benefits and a

employee compensation and benefits was primarily attributable to normal merit

was 30.5% as compared to 33.1% for the same period in 2002. The decrease in the
effective tax rate period to period is mainly due to tax-exempt income relating
to the increase in cash surrender value of life insurance.
