Did you know?
Did you ever hear of Miss Clear Spring? It was not a beauty pageant, it was a bus. Owned by Lewis Blair, the bus went from Clear Spring to Hagerstown and back for all sorts of errands. In the early 1920s, it hauled residents to work, school and even to baseball games.
Not only did it haul people, it also carried milk to the creamery for farmers and delivered The Daily Mail. C. Edward Miller was the main bus driver.
