Eleanor had suggested to her sister Meredith that Jackie Wilson, whom Eleanor had met when in the second city at the exclusive Vic club, might be a good consultant for the Service to retain. Jackie was now a principal but years ago, when she had started teaching as a young woman just out of college, she had been Meredith's husband Jackson's teacher.
Jackson had previously been married to Eleanor but when they divorced, there were no hard feelings. Eleanor, in fact, was delighted that her sister hit it off with Jackson and they married. Eleanor let them live in her apartment she still owned in the second city of the Women's Republic.
Meredith had invited Jackie Wilson over with the intention of having her discipline Jackson. She knew he would be very fearful when he saw Jackie because she had written a note home to his mother than earned him his first spanking. What made it even worse was that his mother had his older sister, Jenny, give him the spanking.
Jackie suggested to Meredith when she came to visit that Meredith should have Jackie's daughter, now a young teacher in her mid-20's, come by to discipline Jackson. Both women realized that being disciplined by a severe young woman teacher would truly shake up Jackson's confidence. He had mostly reformed but still behaved badly, usually in small ways.
Jackie's daughter Elizabeth did come by at Meredith's invitation. Jackson realized, as did Meredith, that she was indeed a severe dominatrix who enjoyed the chance to discipline a man since she couldn't spank or cane pupils at school anymore. Beth spanked Jackson hard and then subjected him to toilet discipline, both in supervising his defecation after she had inserted a glycerin suppository in his anus and having him serve her as she defecated. She also gave him a very painful caning.
Meredith, at Kate's instance after the two of them had spent a day at the Disciplinary and Retraining Unit where Jackson was put through his paces, now graded Jackson in Conduct every day. Jackie had given her a supply of school conduct report cards for her to use and to make an even stronger impression on Jackson.
Beth was used to grading pupils severely, so she failed Jackson in Conduct by 13 points, giving him a 52, lower than any grade Meredith had awarded him. The young teacher marked his report card in dark black ink and circled the failing grade in red, as teachers had long done to make sure parents noticed failing grades.
Meredith didn't tell Jackson that Jackie also had given her a supply of the more stringent conduct report cards used at her school when a pupil failed in Conduct for two straight days. The detailed card required entry of a Conduct grade by each teacher in each class, and Jackie suggested Meredith might use it to grade him three times a day until he went three days without a failure in any class or any grading.
Eleanor told Meredith that she had suggested Jackie as a consultant to the Service to Kate. After she heard about Meredith's having Beth discipline and then graded Jackson, Eleanor said that she thought Beth might be a candidate for recruitment to the Service.
Meredith agreed that the young woman was quite the severe disciplinarian and might do well in the Service. Eleanor said she would set up an appointment for her to see Kate, who was certainly in a position to recruit her if she felt she would work out well.
Eleanor contacted Beth Wilson to tell her she'd like to set up an appointment for her with the Commandant of the Correction Service's Disciplinary and Retraining Unit with the prospect of Beth's joining the Service.
"I think you'd like it and would do well and advance in the Service," Eleanor advised her.
Beth said she was interested and would come to the capital to meet Kate if Eleanor arranged it on one of her days off. Eleanor proceeded to contact Kate and tell her about this promising young woman Meredith had met who was already a highly competent disciplinarian.
"I hope you'll be willing to meet her and then see if you feel she'd be an appropriate recruit for the Service," Eleanor said. "My sister gave her high marks when Meredith asked her to discipline Jackson."
Kate said she'd certainly be willing to have her come up to the city for an interview with her and possibly others at the Service. She picked one of the days Beth had given Eleanor and told Ellie that she'd arrange for Beth to be flown up on the Service's daily flight from the second city. She then had Grace, her secretary, transmit an official invitation for her to take the transport and meet with Kate, along with the voucher to give the transport official.
Beth was impressed with the invitation; she dressed in a grey pinstripe suit with a proper-length skirt, ecru blouse, grey hose, and burgundy pumps. Her lovely dark hair was in a simple ponytail.
She was escorted to Kate's office at the Service headquarters and shown into Kate's private office. Kate smiled and shook hands with her and told her that since they had spoken, Kate had been named Chief of Staff of the Service and was now a General, having been promoted very expeditiously to Colonel from her Lieutenant Colonel's grade.
"Congratulations!" Beth said with a grin. "I'm very awed by meeting the Chief of Staff. Thank you for being willing to see me."
"You come well recommended by my good friend Eleanor of Goose Cookers and originally from her sister, whose husband I understand you have disciplined for Meredith.
Beth's eyes widened at this powerful woman knowing all about her disciplining of Jackson, which she had enjoyed but never thought would open up this exciting career prospect.
"I gather you learned about discipline from your mother, which is admirable," Kate went on. "May I ask something quite personal--have you been disciplined by her since you started teaching?"
