How do I change full justification settings

I use Word 2010. I want to have full justification within each column of a three column newsletter.

When I type in a new line - almost immediately after the second word in the sentence it begins to justify. If I type on two words in the line - one is justified left and one is justified right. The last line of a paragraph will justify with huge spaces.

In my 2010 Word "Hyphenation Options" box - there is no % but rather, inches.

Answer
You must have pressed Ctrl+Shift+J, which turns on what Word calls "Distributed" alignment. Select all the affected text and press Ctrl+J, which is "Justified" alignment. The difference between the two is that behavior of right-aligning the last (or only) line of a paragraph.
