INTERNET ARCHIVE: FILMS FROM 1923
archive.org/details/moviesandfilms?&and[]=year%3A%221923%22
Readers wondering where they might find some of the films that recently entered the public domain under US copyright law should take a look at the Internet Archive's movie collection. At the link above, visitors can watch and download several dozen full-length feature films from 1923, the publication year that most recently became public domain in the US. This collection includes such films as Cecil B. DeMille's lesser-known silent version of The Ten Commandments, the classic The Hunchback of Notre Dame starring Lon Chaney and directed by Wallace Worsley, and Alla Nazimova's avant-garde adaptation of Oscar Wilde's play Salome, as well as several of Otto Messmer's early Felix the Cat cartoons. Although films from this time had no audible dialogue, some in this collection include music. Visitors may use the search bar and filters on the left to further explore the Internet Archive's movie collections, and the entire site is bursting with other content to explore as well. [JDC]

KDOR reminds voters of free ID services
TOPEKA—Kansans who need a photo ID before the November 6th election can visit any driver’s license office, jump to the front of the line, and get one for free.
To ensure the ID is free, Kansans should specifically state they need it for voting. The cost for ID cards normally is $22.
“This service is always available and it’s important for us to remind voters that it’s an option ahead of the November 6th general election,” Director of Vehicles David Harper said.
For a list of driver’s license office locations and hours visit https://www.ksrevenue.org/dovstations.html.

My thanks to the state library for this. By 1968, Butler Community College was 41 years old. We weren't the first, but we executed the concept beautifully over the years.
I see 60 other publications to view about community colleges in Kansas on this link. Thanks, Bill!
