"A PLEASANT SPOT NEAR SANDY WILDS"

The above motto is inscribed over the entrance to Orange- field House, the hotel at Prest wick, Scotland's international Airport. It dates from the time when the hotel was a private family mansion.

Visitors are inclined to enquiro whether it is a quotation from the works of Robert Burns. I found, however, that it is not to be ascribed to him although hu was a frequent visitor to Orange- feld House. The "Sandy (Wilds" adjacent to the airport now form
