             Note 2 -  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

                           h.  Property and Equipment

                               Property and equipment acquisitions are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is recorded
                               over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using the straight-line
                               method.  The useful lives range from 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment,
                               from 10 to 15 years for building improvements, and is 39 years for the building.
                               Additions and major improvements are  capitalized, while expenditures for
                               maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

                           i. Unearned Revenue

                               Unearned revenue consists of dues received in advance for the following year and
                               registration fees received as of year end for seminars to be held in the following
                               year.

                           j. Contributions

                               All contributions are considered to be available for unrestricted use unless
                               specifically restricted by the donor.  Support that is restricted by the donor is
                               reported as an increase in unrestricted net assets if the restriction expires in the
                               reporting period in which the support is recognized.  All other donor-restricted
                               support is reported as an increase in temporarily or permanently restricted net
                               assets depending on the nature of the restriction.  When a restriction expires,
                               temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and are
                               reported in the statements of activities as net assets released from restriction.

                           k. Contributed Services

                               A portion of the Association's functions, including educational activities and
                               publications, is conducted by unpaid volunteers.  The value of this contributed
                               time is not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since
                               the volunteers' time does not meet the criteria for recognition under accounting
                               principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
