With "newspaper" type columns, you need to insert a column break to move
from the first to the second column. (Page Layout tabBreaks in Page Setup
section of RibbonColumn)

If you want to switch backwards and forwards, maybe you should be using a
two column table instead. If you go this route, insert new rows every now
and then as exceptionally long rows (spanning pages) can be a bit of an
issue.
