(B) If it shall appear that any child taken into custody for a violation of this subchapter is growing up in a delinquent or vagrant fashion, is incorrigible, or is a repeated violator of this subchapter for lack of proper parental care, or because he has no home, proper proceedings shall be taken to have the child placed in the care of a state institution as provided by statute.
