the voice begins to break the vocal
chords become heightened at least one

becomes enlarged. and the muscles
which connect the organs of the voice
with the liypoisl bone and the base of
the tongue beeas9e elongated.
While the change of form is taking
place the voice is united for singing
and should be used only with great
care. In oeser words. the breaking
of The voice IS due to the rapid de-
yelopment OF the larynx. which takes
place at certain ages and which leads
to q change III the range of the voice.
