Tom Cooper    

TOM COOPER. Tom Cooper of Oklahoma City, Okla., is a Parker County boy who had the advantages of only a limited education, and who was thrown on his own responsibilities early in life. He clerked in a Weatherford store for a time, and then successfully engaged in a business venture at Garner, Parker County, Texas.

Mr. Cooper moved to Ardmore, Okla., where he secured a Ford agency, just when Ford cars were coming into popularity. He has a well-furnished ranch near that place, on which his hobby is growing the famous Guernsey cattle for exhibition purposes.
In addition to his other interests, Mr. Cooper has added a bus transportation business, which has been an outstanding success. He is now regarded as one of the wealthy men of the State of Oklahoma.
