Bell-ringers sparse this season & Thrift store gets the boot

Salvation Army seeks more helpers to collect donations outside businesses.
The Salvation Army in Redding is off to a slow start in attracting volunteers for its annual Christmas time kettle drive, an organization leader said last week.
And in related news, the Salvation Army has its marching orders from City Council: Ship out.
A new Salvation Army Thrift Store was nearly set up in the former Morning Glory Antique Mall's building on Ponderosa Way. The organization had spent about $30,000 in rent, equipment and labor preparing for the opening next month of what would have been its only south-Shasta County store, Capt. Wayne Wetter said Friday.
