In the process, this one-man Peace Corps has given the name "American" a new lasting glory in a part of the world where Com munists work especially hard to vilify it To supplement what he can do on his own, Dr. Lalonde has set up a chain of outlying dental clinics which serve some 30,000,000 people in a region where, un til he came, there were only a half-dozen or so dentists. He also has equipped 24 bush hospitals with complete dental facili ties and has modernized their diagnostic and treatment facilities. Out of his own funds and those of his bedazzled supporters back home, he has done all this and more for something less than $500,000. His brother Leo ac counts for part of this miracle of logis tics. A professional shipper, Leo crates in his Rochester garage the tons of equip ment and medications which make pos sible his brother's annual six-month Afri can dental practice. Both Leo and their spry 88-year-old mother help "scrounge" this material from donors everywhere. Hr. Paul pays the freight charges on everything running into thousands of dollars annually as well as his own expenses in the bush. When he gets to Africa, he economizes further by making every scrap do double duty. He turns packing-case panels from his X-ray ma chines into storeroom doors, and even the shredded material that cushions X-ray tubes in transit is used as stuffing for pil lows and operating-table headrests. To make sure his work continues be yond his own lifetime. Dr. Lalonde has stitched his program into the durable fab ric of a young, energetic group, the Medi cal Missionaries of Mary. He himself has trained its members and their native help ers so that they can train others as den tal technicians and nurses. Where does a man like Dr. Lalonde get off tackling such a State-Department-sized job and then making a phenomenal success of it? "You have to be a little crazy," he says with a grin. Boyhood excitement about Africa, sparked by the adventures of Stan ley and Livingstone, helped, too. Then, as a man, he translated this excitement into big-game hunting trips there and in other parts of the world. With his wife, who died in 1054, Dr. Lalonde also has shared lifelong interest in medical missions, many of which they visited during 25 years of world travel. Last year. Dr. Lalonde cut through red tape and succeeded in placing a young dentist from New York in Africa to carry on for him when he is back in Rochester. And recently he learned that the elaborate dental-training facilities which he has provided at the Medical Missionaries of Mary headquarters in Ire land have begun sending the first Lalonde sponsored graduate dentists to Africa. It is a mighty big project for one small man to have launched, but it is now defi nitely a going concern a durable example of American humaneness in Africa.
